Chapter 21: Light and Darkness (3)
Yan Jiujiu took the mouthwash tea with a smile in his eyebrows, and when he turned sideways, he saw that the sky outside the house was already full of stars, and the night and the stars were like a gorgeous brocade robe woven with blackened silver, and the bright stars couldn't see the border.

She felt inexplicably happy and reassured.
Turning his head, he spit mouthwash into the copper basin, his mother and aunt were smiling and talking about his childhood anecdotes, his face was ruddy and full, exuding a luster and luster, his uncle and Jing Shilang were already slightly drunk, but although Jing Shilang was smiling and white-toothed, he did not see the slightest drunkenness, and his black and white eyes were still cold and clear.
Jing Yanyan got up and gave a gift and retired first.
She turned her head to stare at the starry night sky, her gaze softened, and even the breath she exhaled was wrapped in the faint smell of fruit wine, Yan Jiujiu took a long breath, trying to make herself more sober, but the faint and fragrant smell of fruit wine still lingered, probably into the blood.
She touched her slightly hot cheeks, thinking that it was Tongyun decorating her temples.
Someone patted her gently, and she blinked and stared at the crescent moon hanging high for a while, bright and bright, in the end, a hundred stars are not as good as January......
"Cousin. β
Is anyone calling her?
The moon is like water, and the breeze is blowing.
She turned her head, and in front of her was a handsome face with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and the dark robe was like this quiet night sky, with an indescribable charm.
The heat in Yan Jiujiu's heart was half cold, thinking that it was the breeze that took away the smell of wine on her body.
"You..."Yan Jiujiu looked at him with a smile, "You're so good-looking, it's just that I don't like your type....."
When he said this, Jing Shilang was looking at the woman with apricot eyes, with a small mouth, and her long neck was hidden in the high soft satin collar, he looked at the crimson edging Ruyi buckle, squinted his eyes, and carefully followed the lines.
He only felt that a nameless fire had risen, burning his heart that was as still as water.
"Jiu'er, will you go to the side hall with your aunt to have tea? β
Shi Huaizhen walked over and put his hands on the shoulders of the two and smiled.
"Mother...."
I want to go too, I don't want to be with this cold-faced and cold-hearted person.
But her mouth was as if she had been injected with anesthetic and couldn't move, she was conscious but couldn't say a word.
"Auntie, you forgot.... It's early, I haven't checked my cousin's homework yet..."
The cold voice was like a basin of ice water suddenly buckled onto Yan Jiujiu's head, and she woke up tremblingly, but her body was weak.
Shi Huaizhen was afraid that Yan Jiujiu would eat too much fruit and get drunk with wine, and if she was alone with Jing Shilang, it would be inevitable that she would be full of foreign appearances, and looking at her daughter's bright eyes, she settled down, patted her hand and told Chu Qing to wait carefully, and then took Shi Yunlan into the side hall with a smile and a smile, and Jing Mingan went to the outer courtyard, it is said that she just received a report that a foreign guest is coming, but what guest came to visit at night?
Of course, these are not her worries, she only cares about the safety of the Jin family, and the Jing family has never needed to rely on it.
At this time, Chu Qing had already picked her up with her vague steps, she looked up, Jing Shilang had already walked a distance, and the slender figure pulled out a slender shadow under the bright moonlight and projected it on the hazy road, not really, but as if pointing to her in the direction.
She looked back at the brightly lit dining room, and the maids and ladies were rushing out, leaving only a few sweeping girls, and the light of the room shone on the exquisite porcelain vases, expensive tables and chairs, and light silk......
Yan Jiujiu only felt dazzled, his eyes were full of gold nuggets and beads, and he was completely chaotic like a half-bright star.
Under the feet of each bluestone slab left a certain interval planted grass, the growth of green plants is extremely tenacious, in this season it is like the man's beard in a few days cut and grown, the grass seems to think that the interval is not enough, then from the gap between the 'bang' all emerged and gradually spread to the center of the slate, fluffy, lush and lush, people are reluctant to step on it, so it grows very well.
Where did Yan Jiujiu manage so much?
Naturally, she couldn't enjoy the pleasure of jumping the lattice, one foot deep and one foot shallow, stepping on the stone slab for a while, and stepping on the soft grass mat for a while.
"Take care of your young lady!"
Jing Shilang, who had been keeping a short distance, turned around and said lightly.
The distant mountains were playing lanterns in front of them, and Chu Qing and Yan Jiujiu couldn't see their faces clearly, so they only followed the voice and the bright lanterns.
Chu Qing tightened her hands and quickly followed.
Yan Jiujiu only felt that she was being dragged and dragged along, the lush grass tips under her feet rubbed against the soles of her mother's shoes, she could clearly imagine the sound of the soft grass tips and solid soles colliding with each other, squirming, like a whispered protest, she slightly hooked the corners of her lips, and her steps became lighter and lighter.
Sniffing the peculiar smell of grass and earth, she felt refreshed and refreshed.
The moon is bright and the stars are dense, and she tilts her head and looks at the straight back in front of her with interest.
She followed the figure that disappeared through the cave door and stepped into the academy.
The lanterns hanging on the eaves of the door spilled out dimly through the gauze silk as thin as cicada's wings, and the evening breeze was blowing, and the flowers and plants in the courtyard swayed in the warm yellow light.
In the past, she had never carefully looked at Jing Shilang's courtyard, but now it seems that she has lost a pleasant elegance.
The flowers and plants were fragrant and rich, and the slender branches and vines snaked up the corners, the green branches shining in the faint yellow light through the screen window.
Yan Jiujiu blinked, followed the tip of the bud and looked at the half silhouette printed on the dim lattice window, the beautiful face curve was finely outlined by the bright lights, and the round pendant on the bun swayed slowly.
Jing Shilang left Yuanshan outside the door, she nodded to Chu Qing, and turned around and entered the study.
"This girl is good," Jing Shilang turned up the lights, "In the future, there will be more loyal people around you...."
He sat still, his slender fingers tapping and stopping on the table, his thin lips slightly open, his eyes still cold, and he couldn't see any emotion.
Yan Jiujiu didn't say a word, she supported the table with one elbow and supported her chin, staring at Jing Shilang.
"Do you know why I call you alone every time I go to the study?"
How do I know? Just when you're crazy....
Yan Jiujiu's face did not change color and her heart did not beat, she looked at Jing Shilang quietly, the smell of wine that made her dizzy I don't know when it dissipated, she is now calm-headed.
Although she was handsome and tall, it was the first time she looked at the man in front of her so seriously.
The long face and narrow jaw, the forehead is full, the mountain roots are handsome but domineering, the thin lips are slightly open but like cherry blossoms with snow, the eyebrow bones are towering like Pixiu sitting, and the pair of phoenix eyes that are staring at her are like the phoenix stars, exuding a terrifying majesty under the proud independence.
Yan Jiujiu couldn't help but look at it twice.
Would she like such a man?
"Why did you marry such a concubine?" she asked coldly.
Jing Shilang smiled slightly, "Doesn't my cousin dislike this type of cousin?
The long and voluptuous eyelashes flickered in the delicate light and shadow, casting a shadow under the white eyes.
"Cousin is inevitable.... I'm just... It's just..."
"You just think she's very similar to you, don't you?"
Yan Jiujiu looked up, and the man sitting opposite had an extra cloisonnΓ© enamel pocket watch in his hand at some point, and the luster of the jewelry shone in the light.
She couldn't help but be dumbfounded, but cleared her throat and said, "Now that you know why you are saying these things, it's a mess!"
"I don't ask how to know if my cousin has me in her heart?" he looked at Yan Jiujiu, his eyes flashing with a strange light, "Does my cousin have me in her heart?"
Yan Jiujiu lowered his head and chuckled: "You are my cousin, why not?"
"Only cousin .... Or is it just me?"
"What's the difference between you and your cousin?"
After speaking, there was a tacit silence, and the pocket watch in Jing Shilang's hand opened and closed, and the sound of the beginning and closing was particularly abrupt in this quiet night.
"She's not my concubine, I'm just taking her into the house. β
He put the pocket watch on the table, propped his elbows on the table and approached the woman in front of him, and said seriously.
Yan Jiujiu looked away, the dim light was swallowed up by the darkness outside the table, and it was pitch black all around, this man seemed to be a light source, maybe she was afraid of the darkness, she looked back at him again.
"Does that make a difference?" she said, grimacing.
Jing Shilang suddenly withdrew his body, leaned on the Taishi chair relaxedly, his smooth jaw shining in the light, he looked at Yan Jiujiu intently, and there was endless peace in his eyes.
"Don't you think there's something wrong? she came into my sight without warning shortly after you left, and ..... at that time."
It's when I miss you the most.
He suppressed his emotions, his eyes were bright, and he attracted Yan Jiujiu's attention under the faint light.
"That day, I had a small gathering with the Jiang sisters and brothers, and she left something behind, you know that I have always been kind and helpful, and I am naturally ....."
"Naturally, help her pick it up, and hand it to her hand by the way, and then get to know her!" Yan Jiujiu rolled his eyes.
Jing Shilang's smile deepened, and a pair of phoenix eyes had a different look.
Then I called out to her.... The moment she turned around..... Jing Shilang pursed her lips and glanced at Yan Jiujiu deeply, "I'm thinking.... There are two people in the world who are so similar. Later, I asked Yuanshan to check on her, but I didn't expect her to make a living in Paramount. β
"So you go home once you are born, twice cooked, and three times old. Yan Jiujiu answered smoothly.
Jing Shilang rubbed his knuckles, "After that, I found that all my actions seemed to be deliberately guided by someone...... Later, I found out that Minyu didn't like her very much, so I kept creating conflicts between them, and then found a suitable reason to take her into Jingfu..... Thinking about it, this should be what the man behind her would like to see. β
Yan Jiujiu looked at the man with a cold expression in front of her, and couldn't help but become serious, she was keenly aware of the strangeness of this matter, the Jing family had countless enemies, why did she pick out someone similar to her lurking around?
She suddenly thought of the Gu family....
followed by an awe-inspiring gaze, and suddenly looked at Jing Shilang.
"Is this related to the Gu family?"
Jing Shilang expected her to analyze like this, and said slowly after a long time: "I thought it was also related to the Gu family.... In addition to letting you go to the French Concession this time, you can see that your brother has rebelled now, and furthermore, the Gu family is cunning and treacherous, and it has been difficult to catch a loach like a slippery hand for many years, this time not only made the Gu family's conspiracy surface, but also ruled out the possibility that Yu Weiwei was a member of the Gu family. β
Yan Jiujiu was frightened, the Gu family was originally a honey-bellied sword, with a human face and a beast's heart.
"But who else can hide better than Gu's?"
Jing Shilang tapped lightly on the table, "That's why I want them to stay outside...."
"You mean to say that there are ghosts in the house?"
Yan Jiujiu almost stood up, Jingfu can be said to be impermeable, and under such careful management, it can still be mixed in with thieves, she thought carefully, that Jin Mansion....
Jing Shilang looked at Yan Jiujiu's expression, pressed her hand and said, "Don't worry, the people in the Jin Mansion can be trusted, that person should still be in the mansion." β
Yan Jiujiu withdrew his hand silently, but suddenly thought of the eyes that were secretly watching her behind her back.
"I'm today.... I don't know why, I always feel like someone is staring at me..."
She said uncertainly, but when she looked up, she saw that Jing Shilang's face had changed, and she saw that the hand that had been knuckling like jade pinched her little hand again.
"Don't worry, I'll find him as soon as I can. β
No matter where he is, even if I give everything I have, I will protect you for the rest of your life.
Yan Jiujiu looked at the green tendons in that hand, and the strength in his hand was tightening little by little.
