Volume 3 The Storm Rises Chapter 208 The Quiet Heart
Tears, squeezed out of his eyes drop by drop, blurring Zhou Qiaoxin's vision, Zhou Qiaoxin wiped his eyes with his cuffs, only to find that his cuffs were already soaked, and they were all tears left by himself.
Wiping away his tears with his hands, Zhou Qiaoxin continued to say to the moon: "What is so good about him? He looks like black charcoal, his mouth is full of foul language, nine out of ten people hate him, you say that you are a god in the sky, why do you like her? If you like it, you like it, but why do you want to leave her? If you leave, you will leave, but why do you give him an illusory promise? Do you know how deeply you hurt him? Do you know what?"
In the empty courtyard, Zhou Qiaoxin kept venting to Mingyue, she felt worthless for Hu Yu, her heart was also quite unwilling, she was angry, and she was helpless.
After venting, Zhou Qiaoxin weakly collapsed into the small courtyard, looked at the renovated courtyard wall around him, looked at the grocery room that had been sorted out, and remembered that Hu Yu was still sweating here in the afternoon, Zhou Qiaoxin stood up with difficulty and walked towards the room.
Pushing open the door, a fragrance came to my nose, it was the wild flower that Hu Yu had placed in the room, and the fragrance had overflowed the entire room.
Zhou Qiaoxin walked to the round table in the room, stretched out his hand and touched the oil lamp, and the dark room was lit up with bright firelight, and the simple hut was neat, as Hu Yu said, this has a little taste of home.
"Home, without you, is there still a home?" The sad atmosphere permeated the small room, and Zhou Qiaoxin at this time looked so weak and pitiful, far from being as strong as she usually showed.
I don't know when, Zhou Qiaoxin lay on the table and fell asleep, and the light shone on Zhou Qiaoxin's beautiful face, as if to guide her to a road that is no longer so bumpy.
In this huge Qixia City, the joys and sorrows like Hu Yu and Zhou Qiaoxin don't know how much to stage a day, time will not stay for a moment because of their sadness, when the first rays of sunlight in the morning fall in the small courtyard, the night has passed quietly.
Zhou Qiaoxin, who was lying on the round table and sleeping with his eyes closed, suddenly woke up, the oil lamp in front of him was still emitting bright light, but compared with the morning sun on the horizon, it seemed so insignificant.
Zhou Qiaoxin looked around blankly, smelling the faint fragrance in the room, all her thoughts came up again, and her weak body was also reminding her that everything that happened last night was not a dream, but really happened.
Rubbing his arm that was a little sour and numb, Zhou Qiaoxin's eyes returned to their previous firmness.
Looking at the firelight on the wick, Zhou Qiaoxin said confidently: "Hmph, a coward, I don't believe you can escape the palm of this girl's hand!"
Immediately blew out the fire in one go, Zhou Qiaoxin stood up and walked towards the door, saying as he walked: "Since you have cleaned up this room, you must live in it for me, otherwise who will have time to clean it for you." ”
A ray of sunshine shone on Zhou Qiaoxin's face, and those faint tears still remained under the corners of her eyes, but at this time, Zhou Qiaoxin was no longer the expected Ai Ai of last night, a sly smile hung on her face, and the whole person looked young and beautiful, full of vitality.
......
Without the illumination of candles, the entire second floor of Lin Youlou looked gloomy, revealing a slightly gloomy feeling.
Youjie, who had never slept all night, hid behind the curtain with two big black eyes, and hesitated.
Zhou Qiaoxin found her last night, hoping that she could take care of Hu Yu, who was injured overnight, and also left her a lot of money, who knew that when she just walked down the stairs, she met Boss Ma, who had not appeared for a long time, after being interrogated by Boss Ma, Ma Yunlu said that it would be enough to hand over Hu Yu to him, so that Youjie did not have to ask again.
Seeing Ma Yunlu's serious expression, where did Youjie dare to refute, she could only agree at the moment, but she couldn't rest assured, and quietly came to the terrace to see a few times, at the beginning she saw Ma Yunlu talking to himself next to Hu Yu, and kept drinking, so he looked extremely intoxicated, Youjie knew his boss's hobby, since Ma Yunlu was still drinking with Hu Yu, she didn't bother.
Later, when she came to take a look again, she found that Ma Yunlu had fallen drunk on the ground, and Hu Yu seemed to be drunk on the table, so she was still complaining about Ma Yunlu in her heart, Hu Yu was so seriously injured, but she still kept Hu Yu to drink, and drunk him, did her boss want Hu Yu's life?
At that time, Youjie walked lightly into the terrace, ready to help Hu Yu to the room to rest, but just when her feet just stepped into the terrace, Ma Yunlu, who was already drunk and unconscious, suddenly sat up, stared at her with a ghostly light, and said in a cold tone: "Go away, you don't care about the things here!"
Youjie was frightened half to death by Ma Yunlu's actions, and subconsciously wanted to scream, but she was surprised to find that her mouth seemed to be covered by something, no matter how she struggled, she couldn't make a sound, only to see Ma Yunlu glaring at her, and said in an unkind tone: "Don't make a sound, what should you do, don't come here again." ”
Youjie's eyes widened in horror, her mouth couldn't make a sound, she could only keep nodding her head, until she withdrew from the curtain, the feeling of suffocation disappeared, she had seen too many incredible things tonight, Youjie was so frightened that she couldn't possess her body, and hurriedly went back to her room, trembling and huddled on the bed, and didn't sleep all night.
It wasn't until the light of day that Youjie, who had been frightened all night, suppressed the fear in her heart, knowing that her boss had no intention of hurting her, and then came to the terrace on the second floor again.
It's just through the curtain that Youjie found that Hu Yu and Ma Yunlu were still the same as last night, one lying on the table and the other lying on the ground, obviously because the strength of the wine had not passed.
"Could it be that everything that happened last night was an illusion?" Youjie couldn't tell if everything that happened last night was true, so he stood behind the curtain and lost his mind.
"Come here. ”
Ma Yunlu's majestic voice reached Youjie's ears, and Youjie trembled in fright, and almost fell to the ground.
Ma Yunlu sat up from the ground, rubbed his wrinkled face, and then said with a smile: "You girl, didn't you have a lot of courage last night." ”
Listening to Ma Yunlu's slightly smiling voice, Youjie's nervous emotions suddenly dissipated by more than half, and after taking a deep breath, his body no longer trembled.
After tidying up the cuffs that were crumpled by himself, Youjie had a sweet smile on his face, and with small steps, he slowly walked into the terrace and came to Ma Yunlu.
As soon as he bowed to Ma Yunlu, Youjie opened his mouth and said, "Youjie has seen the owner. ”
Ma Yunlu's face was full of smiles, and a pair of eyes were also hidden in the wrinkles, and those small eyes were carefully looking at the Youjie in front of him through the gap.
At this time, Youjie had completely eliminated his nervousness, and stood in front of Ma Yunlu generously, his eyes still glanced at Hu Yu who was lying motionless on the table from time to time, and the concern in his eyes was undoubtedly revealed.
Ma Yunlu smashed his mouth, held the empty teacup on the table in his hand and said to Youjie: "I didn't expect that you, a girl, are very attentive to guests, how long have you been here?"
With a graceful smile, he said to Ma Yunlu: "Back to the owner, the concubine has been here for more than half a month. ”
Then he didn't wait for Ma Yunlu to speak, and continued: "The owner drank too much last night, presumably he must be thirsty, and please ask the owner to wait a while, and the concubine will go and get a pot of hot tea." ”
With that, Youjie saluted Ma Yunlu, and then turned around and walked out of the terrace.
When Youjie came out of the terrace, Ma Yunlu said to himself to the teacup in his hand: "Yes, there is affection and righteousness, and people are quite smart, but it's a pity, I was born in a green building." ”
Ma Yunlu shook his head, and then his eyes fell on Hu Yu, with some inexplicable meaning in his eyes.
It wasn't long before Yujie reappeared on the terrace. There is also a small wooden plate in his hand, on which is placed a delicate teapot and two teacups, the wooden plate moves smoothly with the pace of Youjie, there is no half point of inclination, obviously on this end of the plate, Youjie has also practiced a lot of time.
Placing the wooden plate on the floor, he took out the fresh teapot and cup, and then Yujie knelt down and put everything on the table into the wooden plate, including the shriveled wine bag.
Just as Youjie was about to pour fresh tea for Ma Yunlu, Ma Yunlu suddenly reached out and grabbed the wine bag from the wooden plate, grabbed the wine bag tightly with both hands, and showed a painful look on his face.
Youjie looked at Ma Yunlu with a puzzled face, and then lowered her head and started her own business, she didn't dare to ask Ma Yunlu why she was bitter, so she had to suppress her doubts in the bottom of her heart.
Ma Yunlu's hands trembled a little, staring at the empty wine bag in his hand, and then shook it in his ear a little unwillingly, the voice of expectation did not sound, Ma Yunlu opened the cork again, and then slowly put down the tip of his nose.
The fragrance is still left in the wine bag, but the wine bag is just a wine bag, and there is not even a drop of wine left in it, and I am afraid that it will not be long before the fragrance remaining in the bag will completely dissipate.
Ma Yunlu stuffed the cork back into the wine bag and muttered, "Why is it gone?"
Youjie handed a cup of hot tea to Ma Yunlu, and she didn't know whether to ask, she knew this wine bag, it was taken out by Hu Yu after Zhou Qiaoxin was injured.
