Su Ke fainted at Shao Linghang's feet, her skin itself was whiter than ordinary people, and after drinking, it was as white as the first snow on the eaves.

Shao Linghang felt that his body was shaking, he couldn't tell whether he was scared or angry, the tighter he tensed, the more his body trembled. He gently shook Su Ke's shoulders twice, feeling that her body was so soft that it was like tofu that had just come out of the pot. He didn't dare to shake her vigorously, for fear that any more strength would shatter her.

He called to her in a suppressed voice, "Su Ke...... Su Ke ......"

Su Ke was like dead.

Shao Linghang didn't doubt him, and directly hugged Su Ke horizontally.

It was the third time he had hugged her like that. The first time was when the drunken incense pavilion couldn't control the fire in her heart, because she also drank red soup, her body was hot, and she tried her best to break free, but her body was so soft that she could pinch out the water. The second time was in the old warehouse, lying on the ground for half a night, his body was as cold as ice, he felt his temperature in a daze, and he leaned into his arms.

This was the third time, and she didn't move.

Accustomed to life and death on the battlefield, Shao Linghang did not exercise how hard-hearted. On the contrary, there were deeper, more terrible thoughts in his head. He even felt that the person in his arms was dead, as if he was dragging his dead deputy back to the camp on the battlefield.

He blushed and didn't say anything, hugged Su Ke and left.

The old lady's voice came from inside the house, with some hoarseness, like crying but not crying, and much less momentum than shouting.

Shao Linghang was a little uncomfortable, such a trade-off was something he didn't want to see. No one is necessarily more important than anyone, one is a mother, the other is a lover, he cannot be respectful and filial to his lover like his mother, nor can he love and care for his mother like a lover. In his heart, he cherishes the two people separately, he hopes that they can be a bridge between them, and he hopes that Yiqiē can move towards a goal worthy of hope in a smooth and orderly manner.

But why do you have to force each other like this?

What's in the wine?

Shao Linghang's heart was in turmoil, and the more he walked, the more chaotic he became, and after leaving the Xiangju Residence, his feet slipped and he almost threw Su Ke out. He stood on his feet and lifted it up again, the bump that made Su Ke frown.

"If you do it again, I'm going to throw it up."

Su Ke endured the discomfort, his voice was vague, but Shao Linghang still understood. What's more, Su Ke seemed to be fine, his eyes were half-squinted, his brows were furrowed into two small bulges, and after his eyes went back and forth around, he stretched out his hands and wrapped his arms around his neck.

Su Ke, who straightened up, exhaled smoothly.

That breath exhaled on the back of Shao Linghang's neck, and sensing the warmth, Shao Linghang's affection slowly suppressed.

"Are you alright?"

"It's okay, let me go." Su Ke gasped, because she felt Shao Linghang's arm tremble, out of self-defense, she hugged his neck tightly. But after all, this is the Hou Mansion, there are many people, and the people in the Xiangju can't manage it, but they can still avoid it outside.

It's just that Shao Linghang refuses to let go.

"Did you wake up, or did you not faint at all?" His tone didn't sound good.

Su Ke separated a little distance, squinted his eyes and smiled at him, "I'm not dizzy, how can I be so stupid, that wine can really be regarded as aging, and it is very energetic." I know how much I drink, I really drink it, and I can't save Hua Tuo when he comes. So I swallowed half a jar and let go, I'm pretty smart. She giggled twice, because Shao Linghang's face was dark, her laughter stopped, and she pulled his clothes, "Quickly let me down, so that I will be more uncomfortable." ”

"There's no poison in that wine?"

"Don't you see I'm fine?" Su Ke raised his eyebrows, "I'm also afraid of poison, I've already tasted it before sending it." ”

I don't know if the strength of the wine has finally come to an end, Su Ke's face began to turn red, his eyes were watery, and his smile became more. Shao Linghang looked at her carefully, and the fear and worry that he had been full of before turned into an indescribable depression in an instant. It's not the shame of being played, nor the fatigue of the rest of your life, it's just suffocating, holding up a ball of anger, and there is nowhere to vent.

Su Ke leaned closer to his face and pursed his lips, "Scared by me?" ”

Shao Linghang was silent.

Su Ke licked his lips, "In the Drunken Xiang Pavilion before, Yu Niang asked me to exercise the amount of alcohol, I was afraid that if I was poured alcohol, at least I could protect myself." I also learned from the girls how to faint more realistically. It's just that it didn't work once, and in that half a year, I didn't drink a drop of wine with the guests. ”

Su Ke's arm was just on Shao Linghang's shoulder, so close that the breath she exhaled every time she spoke hit Shao Linghang's face. With the fragrance of plums and the cloudy smell of wine, it is more suitable for her than the smell of fat powder.

She was really drunk, otherwise she wouldn't be so close to him.

Is this a blessing in disguise? If she remembers this scene after she wakes up, will she simply let it go in the future, or will she be more one-of-a-kind?

Shao Linghang looked at her, hugged her for so long, and didn't feel heavy at all.

"You let me go quickly, it's not good for people to see it." Her voice chattered.

Shao Linghang was still holding it, and said as he walked: "Continue to pretend that you fainted, could it be that you are drunk like a dead person in front of the old lady, and you will be alive and well when you leave the yard?" When you meet someone, I just have to close your eyes. ”

Su Ke's rare obedience may be really uncomfortable, and he lay on Shao Linghang's shoulder with his head tilted, "Then I'll sleep for a while and go back to Fujia, you remember to wake me up, I have something very important to tell you." ”

"Okay."

So he walked all the way from the Xiangju to the second gate.

On the way, I met the third wife who came to ask for peace, and the hand stove in her hand almost fell off, and her face was stiff and she didn't know how to say hello. Later, he sank his breath and came up to ask Su Ke what was wrong? Could it be that you are sick again?

Shao Linghang replied coldly: "I made a mistake and was punished by the old lady for a pot of wine." ”

Such a punishment is incredible. The third wife looked at Shao Linghang with a look of not wanting to say more, hurriedly said goodbye, and took someone to the Xiangju Residence. Shao Linghang kept a straight face, and carried Su Ke out of the East Corner Gate and returned to Fujia.

Seeing Su Ke being hugged back like this, the Furui family said to their ancestors in their hearts.

"What's the matter, drinking? Drinking in the morning? ”

Entering Su Ke's house, seeing that the house was warm, and preparing a brazier early, Shao Linghang's face improved a lot, and asked Furui's family to boil the wine soup. The Furui family didn't know the cause and effect, and their hearts were itchy, and they didn't dare to make a noise, so they went out with their mouths smashed. Before leaving, don't forget to cover the door carefully.

Shao Linghang was in a dilemma.

Let go of his hand, reluctantly, a rare meekness, he still wants to be restrained for a while. But if she didn't let go of her hand, her face was too close to his neck, and she moved a little away, and she came over. The breath went all into his neckline, like a good wolf sweeping down his spine. That's what happened.

Seeing that his body was about to be controlled, Shao Linghang hurriedly put Su Ke on the bed.

Su Ke dipped his pillow and woke up miraculously. Shao Linghang hurriedly sat on the edge of the bed, leaned half-leaning, and asked her how she was.

Su Ke sat up with his arms propped up, "Pour me a glass of water." ”

Shao Linghang exhaled, got up and went to the round table outside to pour water. The water was a little cold, and he asked Su Ke if he could do it, but Su Ke only said faster, and he was really thirsty. Shao Linghang was still slow, drank two cups by himself, and then came back with a teacup.

Su Ke drank it in one gulp, and there was still a shadow of drinking on the posture.

Shao Linghang pursed his mouth, "Drink half a jar of plum wine in one go, and know acting, I really underestimated the amount of alcohol you drink." Seeing you faint scares me a lot. ”

Su Ke smiled, "I don't know how much I drink, but I just stopped when I was dazed." ”

Shao Linghang looked at her like this, like a primary school child who was eager to be praised. He involuntarily reached out to her and patted her on the head, and said softly, "Well, you are doing a good job, you are a smart girl." Just at least let me know in advance next time, and you know what I'm worried about. ”

Su Ke was still smiling, laughing so much that his eyes were bent into a slit, and he nodded slowly, "Okay." ”

Shao Linghang took a breath, turned over and sat on the edge of the bed, and reached out to hold her into his arms, "Don't drink like this next time, I'm a little uncomfortable with the way you look now." ”

Su Ke whispered something, but Shao Linghang didn't hear it clearly. Feeling the belt falling, he looked down and saw that Su Ke was pulling the big red tassel of the Nothing to do card, and said while wrapping his fingers: "Shao Linghang, I saw Aunt Tian." ”

The process was narrated, Su Ke was drunk, talking slowly, maybe his head hurt, he moved from time to time on Shao Linghang's shoulder, and he was willing to continue talking only when he found a comfortable position. Shao Linghang listened patiently like this, and sketched in his mind the appearance of Aunt Tian as she described, and he always felt astringent in his heart.

"She's isolated from the world, and she doesn't know what this year is like." Shao Linghang said lightly.

Su Ke said in a muffled voice: "The house is too shabby, even my family can't compare." The charcoal in the brazier was choking and not warm, some of the windows were broken, and the baskets of the kang table were full of bits and pieces of cloth...... It's just that her body looks good, and a mother-in-law and a girl are also very loyal to her. As he said that, he suddenly raised his head, "You have to send someone to put away the half jar of plum wine when you go back, and I will send it back to Tiantai." ”

Shao Linghang was slightly stunned, "You still want to go?" ”

"In fact, when I saw her, I understood that the lantern was indeed there, even if she didn't push Mrs. Hua into the water, the matter had nothing to do with her. Who can bother with a 'crazy person', I just want to figure things out and make peace of mind for myself. In addition—" Su Ke bit his lip and groaned, "I always thought that Aunt Tian was crazy, and the old lady had always been kind to me, but when she saw Meizijiu, she suddenly became angry. She knew where my wine came from, and she was jealous of me when she spoke so harshly. But what can the old lady fear of me? ”

"You mean the old lady is jealous of her aunt?"

"That small courtyard is not locked from the outside, they are free to enter and exit, you used to go to see her, and the things you put down for her, it's not that they don't know, but they don't want to see you at all. The mother-in-law who guards the door in the back corner always prevents people from approaching, but she will not restrict the small courtyard. Such an arrangement is not a taboo, but more like torture. Perhaps the old lady had warned them not to come out and not to contact others. ”

Shao Linghang was silent, there were two aunts beside his mother, even if he looked at it in his heart, he would not be too embarrassed on his face. The life of the two aunts in the house is restrictive, but they also have no worries about food and clothing. Aunt Tian, as her mother's dowry girl, has served her father for many years, she is really crazy, building a yard to settle well, but it is just a gesture, why let her live so miserable?

Besides, if it's really an eyesore, wouldn't it be better to give it away. Let her fend for herself, maybe worse than now.

Why don't you send it away?

Shao Linghang's eyebrows and eyes were filled with unquenchable melancholy, his hand was on Su Ke's wrist, and his thumb wearing a white jade wrench gently rubbed her skin. He was so engrossed that he didn't notice that Su Ke kept staring at him. When he exhaled softly and turned his face away, he realized that she was so close that he only needed to move another half an inch before he could kiss her.

Su Kemu was stunned, his eyes fell on Shao Linghang's blue stubble, and he slowly opened his mouth, "You said, the old marquis confessed on his deathbed, and he is not allowed to separate the family within three generations, does it also include Aunt Tian?" ”

Shao Linghang's brain exploded with a bang, recalling the scene before his father's death, and when he explained this sentence, the handkerchief embroidered with two butterflies happened to be stuffed into his hand.

So, is that the real purpose?

"Send someone to investigate secretly," Su Ke tilted his head and leaned closer, "See why Aunt Tian was crazy in the first place?" Pushing the days, it will be at least more than 20 years, and it is estimated that people have passed away. But as long as you're not dead, you can always ask something. Su Ke's eyelids fought, and his head began to droop, "You never thought about it before, so you didn't check it, and now it's difficult to investigate, but you are the Hou Ye, you always have a way, right." ”

Shao Linghang saw that she couldn't support it, so he hurriedly helped her to lie down, "You rest, I'll send someone to do the rest of the work." ”

Su Ke snorted, turned his face and fell asleep completely.

I couldn't sleep □□ this night, and I had a dream. I saw a woman flying a kite on a green lawn, wearing a light dress of lero, holding a spool in one hand and pulling a thread in the other, raising her face to look at the colorful butterfly kite in the sky. The woman suddenly turned around and smiled, and Su Ke was surprised to find that she was actually Aunt Tian when she was young.

Ah, yes, it's the same scene as the lantern.

It must be the lantern that the old marquis specially made for Aunt Tian.

At this time, two children ran beside him, two or three years old, babbling and running over, one fell to the ground, and the other went to help. The faces of the two people slowly reflected in Su Ke's eyes, and they turned out to be a pair of twins, looking exactly the same.

The one who helped the person carefully patted the robe of the one who fell, as if he sensed something, and turned his head to look at Su Ke. He grinned, showed a row of tiny teeth, and called out to her, "Kerr......"

Su Ke woke up from his dream, sweating on his body, and his chest rose and fell violently.

The sky is still good, I don't know the geometry. There was no one else in the room, Su Ke sat on the bed and gasped, and suddenly realized that the layer of window paper that could not be pierced was tearing apart little by little......
