12. Uninvited guests
The noise became louder and louder, and Tao Zhimo suddenly opened his eyes and woke up.
There seemed to be a light breeze blowing in my ears, and then the window behind me made a soft "whoop", and was drowned out by the noise. Tao Zhimo couldn't help but glance back at the window, which was still quietly closed, as if it had never been opened.
The noise had reached their courtyard, and Tao Zhimo hurriedly got out of the bathtub and quickly put it on, and then calmly went downstairs and came to the courtyard.
At this time, the quiet courtyard, which was originally only lit by three or two candles on weekdays, was lit up by torches and lanterns, and Dazhi and Dayong stood in the courtyard with the guys of the dart game, which was quite menacing.
"What's going on?" she asked calmly.
"Someone sneaked into our dart game!" Seeing her come down, Da Yong hurriedly put away the big knife in his hand, "I see that person is running towards you." ”
"Who is it?" Li asked hurriedly, a little worried, and hurriedly put Aman and Shuangxi in his arms.
At this time, Tian Xiongguang hurriedly tied his belt and walked out of the house, "I just went to the thatched house, what's going on? You guys have been robbed over there?" Da Yong's voice has always been very loud, and he thought he heard it inside.
"I don't think that man is here to steal money!" Dayong said, "Let's check it out with you just to be on the safe side." That man was slapped by my eldest brother, and he probably couldn't run fast. ”
As soon as Dayong's words fell, Tao Zhimo heard Tian Xiongguang beside him cough lightly, if she wasn't close, she wouldn't have heard it at all. Almost at the same time, Dazhi's inquiring gaze also looked at Tian Xiongguang. His internal strength is deep, and even though he is far away, he can hear a slight cough.
"Is that man a man or a woman, and how big is his body?" asked Tao Zhimo.
"Male, very athletic. After Dayong finished speaking, he couldn't help but glance at Tian Xiongguang, and felt that it was inappropriate, so he immediately took it back and added, "The martial arts are good." ”
"Strong?" Tao Zhimo continued.
"Hmm! The size ......" Dayong looked at Tian Xiongguang, "The size ...... Maybe a little younger than your dad, but ...... I guess it's pretty much the same. "After all, it is rare to see a person as strong as Tian Xiongguang.
"Such a big person, he definitely can't hide!" Li said anxiously, "You guys hurry up and go in and find it." ”
Seeing that Tao Zhimo also nodded, Dayong took the people from their dart bureau in to search carefully, but found nothing.
The people discussed in the courtyard again, and came to the conclusion that their peers had come to inquire about something, so everyone dispersed, and the courtyard returned to its former tranquility.
It seemed to be just a small episode, but this night, the light in the pottery foam room was turned on late, and she had insomnia, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep.
When she heard Dayong say that someone had broken in, her heart suddenly seemed to miss a beat, and she thought of Nangong Ci inexplicably.
She still remembered that when Nangong Ci had just learned light skills, he came to her over the wall on the first night, and he knocked lightly on the window twice, and she suddenly woke up.
When she heard his voice, she thought he was dreaming, but when she opened the window, she saw him in real life.
The bright moonlight shone on his sheep's fat smiling face, and she had never seen a person smile so cleanly, so purely. Those smiling eyes are brighter and brighter than the bright moon, no, maybe the entire galaxy.
She felt that his laughter was like a dazzling firework, rushing up from her heart, and suddenly illuminating the entire dark night sky.
Her heart immediately jumped like a deer crashing. She was only eight years old that year, and she probably didn't know what love was. But she stubbornly felt that from that moment on, she loved him so much that she couldn't realize it.
This is also the first time Nangong Ci has seen her blush. Later, he studied hard and came to her from time to time. At first, they were discovered by the guards in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but they all turned a blind eye after seeing the comer. Later, his light skills got better and better, and he was already able to avoid the guards in the mansion unconsciously. She almost became his back garden, allowing him to come and go as he pleased.
The man who Dayong said today...... Could it be him? No, Tao Zhimo shook his head and asked himself. Ah Ci is fit and long, at most he can be called a great shore, where is there as strong as Dayong said. Now that he has returned to the imperial capital, he should have found that she is not in the right prime minister's mansion, right?
Tao Zhimo didn't close his eyes all night, and kept staring at the window in front of the bed, as if as long as he waited a little longer, someone would knock on the window gently, and as soon as the window was pushed open, he could see the young man in the moonlight.
She looked at the window all night, but she didn't notice a pair of lonely eyes on the beams of the house, and she also looked at her all night. It wasn't until the sky was faint that she couldn't stop falling asleep. Not long after she closed her eyes, the man on the roof beam fell to the ground like a night bat.
He stood in front of her bed, looked at her for a long time, listened to her calm breathing, and slowly leaned down and stared at her.
After a long time, a slender and beautiful hand reached out, drawing her eyebrows in the air, and his fingertips were obviously very close to hers, but they could not touch her skin.
When he heard the rooster crow, he seemed to suddenly wake up, and turned away without hesitation, without a trace of attachment.
The moment the window closed, Tao Zhimo woke up with his eyes open and looked at the closed window.
She seemed to squint only for a short moment, but she had a long dream, but her dream suddenly woke up, and she forgot what she had dreamed. At this moment, she was still drowsy, but her mind was never clear. She made up her mind that she was going to go to him and explain to him the misunderstanding of that day!
She thought she could leave him, but now she found that she couldn't. She couldn't do without him, and when she was lovesick, the dead heart in her previous life would still hurt, and it hurt like a lonely child in a cold night, shivering.
Tao Zhimo was tired, got up in his clothes, and came to the bookcase to count his net worth. After the inventory, she herself was taken aback, but she didn't expect that she was now a little rich woman, with a net worth of more than 1,000 taels.
"Brother, are you up?" Shuangxi knocked lightly on the door outside, and Brother seemed to be getting up a little late today.
"Up. Tao Zhimo put down the abacus and stepped forward to open the door.
Shuangxi saw that her eyes were slightly swollen, so she said, "Brother, you didn't sleep well last night?"
Tao Zhimo nodded, "I can't sleep a little, I'll make up for it in the afternoon." ”
"Oh. For breakfast, there were millet porridge and steamed buns, and my mother also made dried radish omelette and salted duck eggs. ”
"Hmm. Tao Zhimo smiled slightly, these are what she likes.
Li is a capable person, not only does his work quickly, but he often pickles some dried radishes, salted duck eggs and the like on weekdays, which are delicious. Tao Zhimo thought that if she left, she must bring some to eat on the way. She has already made up her mind to leave after the New Year.
