She is a person who believes in karma, although she feels that Ling Ce is very likely to have a magic sword, but reason tells her that there are so many knives in the world, don't have too much hope. However, the small hopes that had piled up every day for three years, combined with the restlessness brought about by the passage of time, finally shattered the confidence she had built for herself at this moment of fruition.
It's been three years, Cui Ning feels that she has grown up a lot and understands a lot of truths, and sometimes she even feels that no matter what happens, she can bear it, but in fact, even such a small disappointment can't face it calmly.
The blood-stained figures of the senior brothers fell asleep night and night, and the more happiness she got during the day, the more tormented the night.
Cui Ning sometimes feels that she is strong, but at this time she doubts how long she can hold on.
She curled up in a ball, buried her head between her knees, and her ears kept echoing the words that the second senior brother had said before parting.
Perhaps extremely tired, Cui Ning fell asleep in this uncomfortable position.
When she woke up again, it was already dawn, she stepped out of the bed, and Qinglu's voice immediately came from outside, "Lady is awake?"
Cui Ning paused slightly, opened the door and saw that Qinglu was still in last night's clothes, his face was a little pale from the cold, and he suddenly felt very guilty in his heart, "I'm sorry to let you be frozen outside." β
"This is the slave's business. Qinglu rubbed his hands. looked at her carefully, "It's a lady, her face is not very good." β
Cui Ning touched her hand. "Go back and rest, and ask Qingxin to cook you a bowl of ginger soup to drink." β
"The slave and maid summoned Qingxin to serve. Qinglu bowed and left quickly.
After Cui Ning washed herself, she quickly used a comb to put her hair into a ball, and changed into clothes for convenience.
When Qingxin rushed over, she had already packed up, "I'll go to my grandfather's place for breakfast by myself." Qinglu was cold last night, you go take care of her. β
"How's that going to work? The slave maid and Qinglu must have one who is inseparable from the lady. Qingxin said.
"I'm in my own house, what can happen?" Cui Ning was dizzy, and her temper was not as good as usual, "Anyway, I have to be at my grandfather's place all morning." You came and picked me up near noon. β
Qingxin insisted, "The slave sent you over and then came back to take care of Qinglu." β
Cui Ning couldn't resist her, so she had to agree. almost trotted all the way to Cui Xuanbi's yard, and immediately drove her back.
Cui Xuanbi was already sitting in the dining room, but she didn't move her chopsticks, as if she was waiting for her to come over.
"Grandfather, I'm up late. Cui Ning felt that she had to pay the price for even being uncomfortable now, she was sad all night, and as a result, someone followed suit.
"It doesn't matter. Let's sit down and eat. Cui Xuanbi said lightly.
Cui Ning sat down beside him, and his grandson started breakfast in silence.
The peach blossoms in the yard have fallen, and the branches are full of tender green leaves. The courtyard is full of fragrant grass and trees, which makes people relax unconsciously.
After eating, Cui Xuanbi asked her, "Your face is not very good, are you sick?"
"No, I just didn't get a good night's rest last night. Cui Ning also asked. "Has grandfather been waiting for me for a long time?"
"Soon. Cui Xuanbi said.
Cui Ning felt that people's temperament was really amazing. For example, when her grandfather sat alone, she felt very lonely and quiet, and she felt uncomfortable when she thought about it, and when her master was locked in the house alone, she always felt that he was stealing food again.
Cui Xuanbi said, "You don't have to go to the study today, go back and rest." β
"Grandfather, I haven't been there once. Since the last time she was decided, she had been wandering around all day and had never gone to the study to study, "I want to go today." β
Cui Xuanbi looked at her pale face, paused, and did not refuse, "Let's go." β
The dining room was some distance from the study, Cui Xuanbi walked in front, and Cui Ning followed behind, staring at his tall back.
"Grandfather, were you so untalkative when you were young?" asked Cui Ning.
"When I was younger, I talked a lot. Over the years, he felt that there was very little that had to be said other than political affairs.
Cui Ning said, "I've been very talkative since I was a child, but someone told me that if I say too much, I will lose, is my grandfather afraid of saying the wrong thing?"
"When I was young, I talked a lot, but I didn't have a few words right. He used to say a wrong word in front of Xie Chengyu, but then he began to be silent, and as a result, silence became the biggest mistake, "That's about it." β
He also couldn't figure out why he felt that he couldn't get along with people at all when he was with his wife, when he was with his wife.
"I often say the wrong thing, too. Cui Ning was left behind, and jumped up and chased after him, "But I can't help but say it, because if I don't say what I want, others won't know? β
Cui Ning dizzy herself, folded her fingers and counted it, feeling that what she said was right.
"You're right. A faint smile appeared on Cui Xuanbi's face.
Cui Ning was deflated, her grandfather was a very melancholy person, he didn't talk much, and it was easy to become depressed when he was with him, she wanted to change the status quo a little, maybe she wouldn't look so sad if she talked a little more?
What Cui Ning didn't expect was that there were some changes in the study in this situation.
Cui Xuanbi was strict and serious when she told her, and she didn't see any depression.
started with "Mencius", which Cui Ning had read when she was studying at home, but Cui Xuanbi was broad-minded and knowledgeable, and she seemed to be listening to a completely different book.
Before I knew it, an hour had passed.
Cui Xuanbi assigned some homework and sent it back to rest.
Cui Ning went back and immediately made detailed annotations to the chapters he had spoken, and when he was busy until almost noon, he took Qingxin to Lotte House together.
On that day, the champion paraded the streets, and Suzaku Street was overcrowded. Today, there are not many pedestrians, and the streets are getting wider.
The street is lined with shops, and there is an open space in the middle of every few shops. It is specially used for guests to put horse-drawn carriages, but strangely enough, there don't seem to be many people in the shop.
The carriage stopped in front of the Lotte Residence, and Xiao Er greeted him at the door, "But Cui Er Niang?"
"Exactly. Qingxin said.
"Please come in, Lang Jun will be here in the morning. Xiao Er still led her into the door enthusiastically as he did that day.
This time, he took her to the backyard.
It turns out that there is a large garden behind the restaurant, pavilions and pavilions. There are many kinds of flowers and trees in the garden. And the most is the peony, the growth of the green bush is gratifying, many have budding to be released, it can be imagined that it must be very gorgeous when it blooms.
"Second lady Cui. Lang Jun is in the attic over there. Xiao Er stopped in front of a curved bridge.
Cui Ning followed the direction he pointed and saw a two-story attic built in the middle of the water, surrounded by blue lotus pavilions, exuding a faint fragrance. She thanked her and walked over.
As soon as he walked halfway to the curved bridge, he saw the door of the attic open, and Wei Qian, dressed in a light-colored robe, stood at the door.
In the middle of the blue leaves, he stood with his hands in his hands, his hair combed meticulously, and there was not much expression on his face. It is like a flawless fine brushstroke.
"Wei Changyuan Langjun. Cui Ning quickened his pace.
When he saw her face, he frowned slightly, and without saying a word, he turned and went into the house.
Cui Ning had no choice but to put away her greeting words. Follow him in.
"Go upstairs. Wei Qian led her to the narrow staircase and motioned for her to walk ahead.
There are many such stairs in the division, and she often climbs up and down, but this time Wei Qian walked behind, as if she was leaning on the mountain behind her, which made people feel at ease.
Meals were set upstairs. The windows on all sides open to reveal a view of the entire courtyard.
Wei Qian closed the windows around him one by one. "Let's eat first. β
"Why, why are you closing the window?" Being in a confined space with someone she didn't know very well made Cui Ning a little nervous.
"You didn't have a good rest last night, and the wind is easy to catch the cold. Wei Qian sat down.
Cui Ning felt that he was a little ignorant, smiled embarrassedly, knelt down opposite him, and said curiously, "How did you guess that I didn't sleep well?
"No need to guess. Wei Qian poured himself a glass of wine and took a sip, looking like he didn't plan to talk to her again.
Cui Ning was a little depressed, she had just faced an old stuffy gourd at home, and this was another stuffy gourd!
But remembering that the food in this restaurant was worth so much money, she suddenly became happy again, took the rice bowl, and viciously swept away the dishes in front of her.
When she had eaten until she was full of burps, she looked up and saw that Wei Qian didn't move much, "Don't you eat?"
"I've eaten it before. Wei Qian's face smiled lightly, "I was afraid that you would be embarrassed to eat alone, but ...... Looks like I'm thinking too much. β
Cui Ning blushed, "I'll be embarrassed too, but when I think of your family's food being ridiculously expensive, I can't bear to look at it." β
Cui Ning looked at his slender and white fingers holding the jade pot, and the liquid poured out of it exuded a faint aroma, and licked his mouth, "I'm also thirsty." β
There was no one in the room to serve, so Wei Qian got up and walked to her side, leaned over and poured her a glass, "Drink less." β
Cui Ning took a big sip of it, and when she first entered it, she felt sweet in her mouth, and a little floral, but when she reached her throat, it suddenly became spicy and irritating, she couldn't help but choke, and a sip of wine sprayed all over the table.
Then, a faint medicinal taste remained in his mouth.
"What is this?" Cui Jingla's face flushed.
"Stuffed jade pear. Wei Qian paused for a moment, and then said, "It's wine." β
"Is this wine?" Cui Ning has also seen wine, but the smell is very pungent, not like this, "It's expensive, right?"
"It's the wine I made. Wei Qian saw that she seemed to be relieved, and somehow, a little malice floated in his heart, "How does it feel to spray a jade pear brew that is said to be 'hard to find'?"
"Huh?" Cui Ning's eyes widened.
Wei Qian kindly explained, "If you squirt this mouthful, others can't buy it with a thousand gold." β
"Ahh
Wei Qian looked at her reaction and laughed out loud.
"You're coaxing me!" Cui Ning looked at him laughing, felt that he had been fooled, and said angrily, "Your temperament is completely different from the surface." β
He seems to be calm and honest and very reliable, who knows that the essence is so bad!
Wei Qian smiled slightly, "This wine can strengthen the body, it doesn't hurt if you drink a little less." β
Cui Ning picked it up and carefully sipped it a little, thinking it was not bad, put down the wine glass and then continued to talk about the meaning, "I actually came to you ......"
Saying that, she felt that Wei Qian had been shaking, "Don't you always move around, okay?"
