Storm Pavilion

Gu Yi had just boiled a pot of newly dispensed medicine, and before he could open the medicine jar, he took the hand of the handkerchief and looked up in the direction of the door, where there stood a person, a man who had not been seen for a long time.

Gu Yi said calmly, "You're here, are you leaving?"

Tao Ziyuan chuckled, "Yes, I won't annoy you again in the future." I guess I'll never see me again, so I'll be happy. ”

Gu Yi lowered his head and picked up the lid of the decoction through a handkerchief,

"Hmm. ”

Unexpectedly replied, Tao Ziyuan didn't care, pursed her lips, and said, "I'm leaving." It's raining tonight, so remember to close the doors and windows when you go to bed. ”

The people behind him were still silent, Tao Ziyuan sighed secretly in his heart and walked out of the courtyard.

Gu Yi's feelings for Chen Yan began before she appeared, from a certain point of view, she just gave herself a look, and did not secretly do it, Tao Ziyuan was already very grateful.

The departing Tao Zikite would not know that year, the woman who hated her for a long time, after she left, whispered,

"If you come back alive, our accounts will be written off. ”

Some things come first, first come, and this is true in the court, and so is love.

At the door of Yijunxuan, Tao Ziyuan stopped, she looked at the courtyard, and vaguely seemed to see the figure of that person, meticulous office, angry, and weak because of injury, and...... Wearing a red robe on the wedding night, she found out for the first time that he was a little more handsome than Wei Qingyi when he wore that red dress.

Qi Xuan came to Yijunxuan, looked at Tao Ziyuan at the door, and was about to speak, but after thinking a little, he chose to shut up.

I heard the man let out a soft sigh, turned around and was about to leave, when he saw Qi Xuan, who had been silent behind him, and said in surprise, "Why don't you talk when you come?"

Qi Xuan said respectfully, "Everyone in the Storm Pavilion knows that Lord Duwei is the most kind person. ”

Tao Ziyuan curled the corners of her lips and said with a smile, "It's rare that Lord Qi will see it this way." By the way, what's the matter with you?"

Qi Xuan said, "There is news from Ruzhou, saying that there is a nine-headed monster to haunt it, it is a ninth-level monster, and the guards over there can't resist it, so they sent a letter asking for help to the headquarters. ”

Tao Ziyuan pondered for a moment and chuckled, "I'll go." ”

Qi Xuan was slightly stunned, so much so that he subconsciously looked up at the man, this was the answer he didn't expect, Tao Ziyuan hadn't left Yandu for a long time.

After coming back to his senses, Qi Xuan frowned slightly and said, "Lord Duwei, don't, Yandu is here ......."

Tao Ziyuan waved his hand and said calmly, "It's okay, you are responsible for Yandu's side, and if you encounter something that needs to offend people, go to Lord Ling, if something really goes wrong, I have already told Lord Ling about your affairs." As for the next lieutenant, I have already left a letter, so the overall situation is fine, it's just that it's been so long, and I want to go out for a walk. ”

Qi Xuan opened his mouth and was silent.

"Go ahead. ”

Tao Ziyuan urged, and after Qi Xuan gave up his hand and left, Tao Ziyuan stood in place and watched the back of the man leaving, and his slightly narrowed eyes flashed with a hint of coldness.

She just wants everyone to know that all the people who are worried about that position should die, even if she dies outside, she will not let those people turn over the river!

————

This is the first time that Tao Ziyuan has left Yandu Mansion in five years, an ordinary carriage is driving slowly south, and the young man driving is handsome, but there is a shallow scar on his eyebrows, which looks a little more vicissitudes.

The woman in the car was dressed as a woman, and she wore a light pink Luo skirt that Wenxiu found for herself before leaving Yandu, and it was difficult for her to be careful every day before she could get the right size.

Tao Ziyuan sat in the carriage and looked at the scenery along the way, in fact, the scenery was still the same, but it seemed to come out of that place, and the breath in his chest was not so stuffy.

It's just that the good times didn't last long, and soon there were beggars on the side of the road, going north in tattered clothes, and the only thing that seemed intact was the begging bowl in his hand, but he didn't know how many days he hadn't been stained with oil and water.

Tao Ziyuan couldn't bear it in his heart, and the cultivation outside unconsciously slowed down the horsewhip, even if he had expected it, he never thought it would be so serious.

The woman in the carriage stopped the carriage, Xingxiu's hand clenched the reins in time, and the excellent horses' ass selected by thousands of them gasped for air, as if they were complaining about the heat of July.

Xingxiu jumped out of the carriage, and the woman behind him lifted the curtain and walked out, but she didn't get out of the car, but stood in front of the car and looked around, before she realized that there were so many beggars along the way?

"Where does this road lead?" Tao Ziyuan asked.

As soon as Xing Xiu was about to speak, he saw a pair of grandchildren coming over, the hunchbacked old man was already full of gray hair, and the little granddaughter next to him was only five or six years old, with timidity in his eyes but still bold to support the old man with crutches beside him.

Tao Ziyuan stared at the little girl, her eyes moist a little imperceptible to others.

The thin old man leaned on crutches, and took the little granddaughter next to him to staggered to the side of the carriage that must be a rich and noble family in their eyes, but he did not approach very measuredly, but stopped at a distance of two steps, the hunchbacked old man handed the bowl outward, but he didn't dare to look up at the woman in extraordinary clothes, and said humbly,

"Kind madam, give a little, it's fine at all, the little granddaughter hasn't eaten for two days. ”

Saying that, the hunchbacked old man asked the little granddaughter to turn her back, and slowly knelt on the ground in front of the well-dressed two, but he didn't say a word again.

Xingxiu's eyes were red, and he didn't look at Tao Ziyuan, he took out a bun left over from noon from his arms, bypassed the carriage and handed it to the old man.

"Uncle, here you are, this is the only dry food I have. I've got some scraps of silver here, so you can buy some dry food all the way north. ”

The old man held the bun wrapped in a splendid handkerchief in both hands, tears appeared in his eyes, and he said vigorously, "Thank you, young master, thank you, young master, a good person has a good reward, and he will definitely live a long life." ”

The tip of Xingxiu's nose was slightly sour, and he helped up the old man on the ground, and Tao Ziyuan, who had been silent next to him, suddenly spoke, "Slow." ”

Xingxiu looked at the person in the car, who looked indifferent and said lightly, "There is no free lunch in the world. ”

The old man was a little surprised and confused, and looked at Xingxiu beside him, who was also angry and asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Tao Ziyuan said lightly, "I'm just saying a truth that everyone understands, there are so many beggars here, why are you the only ones who can get dry food?"

As soon as the words fell, Xing Xiu noticed that the beggars scattered around him didn't know what to slowly gather on the side of the carriage, although the pace was slow, but he could still see this trend.

What makes people shudder even more is that those people's eyes are clearly staring at the food and silver taels in the hands of the hunchbacked old man.

At this moment, Tao Ziyuan said again, "The old man has lived for such a long time, he won't even be unclear about this truth." ”

The old man was stunned when he heard this, and a trace of clarity appeared in his cloudy and confused eyes.

Xingxiu frowned slightly, gritted his teeth and was about to draw his sword to expel those people, Tao Ziyuan opened his mouth again,

"Those people are also innocent people, what's wrong with them? If you draw your sword like this, I will be the first to send you to the government. ”

Xingxiu looked at the man angrily, the latter was still cold, just looking at the old man, the latter raised his head to look at the young woman in brocade clothes, and said in a daze,

"Girl......"

Tao Ziyuan was slightly stunned and then nodded, although there were no words to practice, he already understood the meaning.

The old man staggered a few steps and handed the loose silver in his palm to the little granddaughter, took the bun in his hand, and then walked a few steps to the boy who was squatting alone on the side of the road on the other side.

She handed him the bun in her hand and gently stroked the top of the boy's hair.

There was a hint of confusion in the eyes of the girl with her back to Tao Zikite, she didn't know what was going on, and she didn't know what was about to happen, she only knew that her grandfather brought the boy to her, folded the hands of the two children together, and led them to Xingxiu,

Say slowly,

"Childe is kind-hearted, in the future, these two dolls will only starve to death as long as they stutter, and it is their creation to be slaves and maids to Childe. There is Lao Gongzi. ”

In these years, as long as there is silver, you can hear anything you want to hear, you can eat anything you want, before practicing cultivation, you are catching fast, although you earn a meager income, but it is much better than ordinary people, and you have to be respected everywhere, but now he realizes that this son-in-law is better than any sentence in the past few years, "Mu Ye." ”

Xingxiu nodded and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry." ”

The old man who got the answer once again explained to the two children, "Chun'er, grandpa will not be there in the future, you and Bai Ge'er will take care of each other, and serve by the side of Mrs. and Son, do you know? Remember?"

The girl was a little ignorant, looking at her grandfather who spoke seriously, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito ant.

road

"Where is Grandpa going, why is Grandpa gone?"

The hunchbacked old man smiled, but it made people look sad.

"Grandpa went to earn money, and when he earned the money, he bought sugar gourds for Chun'er to eat, and it was inconvenient to take two children. ”

The girl nodded as if she understood, but the boy next to her clenched his teeth to prevent himself from making a sound.

The hunchbacked old man looked expectantly at Bai Ge'er beside the girl, and gently stroked the top of his hair again.

The drops of water are silent, but bitter.

The hunchbacked old man turned to leave, Brother Bai held the girl's hand tightly, watching the old man go away, the girl suddenly broke away from Brother Bai'er's hand, ran to the old man's side, pulled his sleeve, and cried, "Grandpa, Chun'er doesn't want sugar gourds, Chun'er wants to be with grandpa!"

The old man looked at the little granddaughter at hand, just raised his hand, his eyes flashed with tears, a little unbearable, looked at the woman in the car, but found that the latter had returned to the carriage at some point.

Staring at the carriage that was not moving, the old man was ruthless, and pushed his little granddaughter away, and the girl who fell to the ground didn't know whether it was pain or grievance, and she cried.

Bai Ge'er hurriedly ran over to help the girl up, and coaxed, "Chun'er, what's the matter, did it hurt to fall?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as the girl got up, she chased after the old man who was speeding up her steps, crying and shouting, "Grandpa, grandpa, don't go!" Chun'er wants to be with grandpa, Chun'er doesn't want sugar gourds anymore. ”

Bai Ge'er ran over to stop the girl's pace of "going to death" together, but he couldn't stop the girl's tears when the thread was broken.

Xingxiu gritted his teeth, pulled the curtain and said, "My lord, you ......"

However, Xing Xiu couldn't go on with the following words, and looked at the woman who was sitting in the car gritting her teeth and crying.

Xingxiu opened his eyes and said sadly, "Since you can't bear it, why do you want to do it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard an exclamation, "Look! That's a dragon!"

Immediately, a group of people ran away.

Dragon?

Xingxiu raised his eyes and saw a water dragon hovering in front of the stone in front of the hunchbacked old man, blocking his progress.

Brother Bai was stunned, and the timid girl rushed out for a while, ran to the hunchbacked old man who was sitting on the ground and was stunned by the appearance of the dragon, knelt and wiped her tears,

"Grandpa, grandpa, Chun'er can endure hardship, Chun'er eats less, Chun'er doesn't want sugar gourds, grandpa doesn't want to go, okay? Chun'er doesn't want to live without grandpa. Grandpa is old, Chun'er can take care of you. ”

Brother Bai clenched his teeth, but he never moved.

The hunchbacked old man looked at the girl next to him and finally burst into tears, and hit the girl next to him twice and scolded,

"You uncompetitive female doll, what's so good about grandpa's old bones!

The hand raised high could no longer bear to fall on the shoulder of the female doll.

"Let them get in the car. ”

The person in the carriage said lightly, Xingxiu looked at her cold face that seemed to have no clues, and bent down and said, "No." ”

Putting down the car curtain, Xingxiu hurriedly ran to the old man's side, the people next to him had already been scared away by the water dragon, and at this moment the water dragon had disappeared, only the old man girl and Brother Bai were deeply grieved because of Fang Cai's "birth and separation".

Xingxiu patted the old man on the shoulder, and said with a light smile, "Old man, my wife asked the three of you to follow the car together." ”

The old man looked at the carriage in a daze, raised his sleeve and wiped his tears, and said to the little granddaughter next to him,

"Quickly kowtow to this son and the lady in the car, you can't forget the great kindness of the lady in this life!"

The obedient girl didn't have time to wipe away her tears, so she knelt down and kowtowed, as if she had no intention of stopping, until a sound came from the carriage,

"Alright, hurry up, it'll get dark in a while. ”

Xingxiu looked in the direction of the carriage and smiled, turned around and picked up the girl with one hand, and picked up Brother Bai, who was still standing in place, with the other, and sent it to the carriage.

Looking at the woman in the carriage again, Xingxiu suddenly felt that in this scorching July, Xiao Xiao Liqing actually had a little more human flavor and comfort.

The white-headed old man couldn't stop thinking, and the little girl with drooping hair shed tears first.
