Chapter Seventy-Three: Growing Old
(NEW)
After picking up the sketch with some doubts, Shi Qing walked over at this time, carefully took the sketch and said: "Don't touch it, this is a painting brought by the puppet Hou Ye, this can be a token of love between Hou Fu Ling and Hou Ye." Moreover, this sketch is often precious, and the canals of the puppets depend on it. ”
Gu looked at him a little embarrassed, firstly, this manuscript was hers, and she and Nan Luoting were not husband and wife, and secondly, what she was holding in her hand was a complete version, that is, Baili Muyan gave her drawing paper to Baili Zhengde, and now Baili Zhengde asked her to bring it to Weinan City.
"Aren't you going to work?"
"I didn't finish drawing a few (papers)." Duan Qing carefully rolled up the drawing paper and continued to explain to Gu, "Master Hou is about to get married, and after he finishes his marriage, he will come to Jieli to supervise." ”
"So what's the use of me here?" Gu took out his full version of Dujiangyan and spread it out on the table, Duan Qing and several overseers were dumbfounded, and quickly climbed closer and began to study.
"Why do you have a detailed drop chart (paper)?"
Gu felt that Duan Qing was very cute when he said that the ordinary feeling of the south was very cute, so he planned to stimulate him again.
When she pulled out the drawing of Zheng Guoqu that she had drawn, Duan Qing was completely stunned.
"Because I painted it, otherwise the emperor wouldn't have sent me to Jieli!"
"Yan Da Ling, you are really good!" Duan Qing and a few people immediately began to study the drawings, but they still had no clue.
"This is just a model, and we have to change the map according to the actual situation of the Wei River, so you can tell me about the situation here first."
Several people whispered around Duan Qing for a while, and Duan Qing stepped forward and began to say: "He Lun doesn't speak very clearly, so he occasionally comes to dissociate himself with Da Leng." ”
Gu really wanted to laugh, so it seems that Duan Qing is still standard here, so isn't Nan Luoting extremely standard?
After a busy afternoon, Duan Qing completed the drawings of the river channel to her according to Gu Li's instructions, and asked people to row a boat to measure the depth, and the basic number was there. It was already dark.
During the chat, Gu learned that Duan Qing and several overseers were officials of Weinan City, which had become much more barren because of frequent floods. The yard where they lived was also built temporarily to control the floods.
However, there are many large rooms here, and you can live in a large room alone.
The dinner was sent by a peasant woman, and she ate the spicy taste that is difficult to encounter in the capital, especially the pepper chicken, which she enjoyed eating.
Duan Qing and the others looked at her with some surprise: "Yan Da Ling." Have you not gotten up (eaten) for a few days? ”
"Well, these dishes are delicious." Although the spicy one started to runny nose, I still couldn't put down the dishes and chopsticks after taking care of it.
"Can it be, what kind of spicy dishes, can you accept it? The real drop of the big ridge is not the southern panic ridge? ”
Gu looked at Duan Qing and felt cute, plus his expression was very vivid and his tone was very soft, so he laughed directly, and choked tears came out.
Duan Qing immediately went over and patted her on the back: "Da Ling doesn't have to pretend to be a mixed expression with the puppets, the puppets will prepare something lighter for you." ”
Gu bowed and bowed his hand. Signaling to him that it doesn't matter: "It's delicious, I like it very much." ”
Lying on the bed after eating, she was a little uncomfortable, in just half a month, her life has changed so much, at this time, Baili Muyan doesn't know what to do, the injuries on his body should be healed, Nan Luoting gets married in the New Year, and he may also marry Han Qianyu.
It's not that she's destined to stay, it's time to forget.
After taking care of it, he continued to be busy with the matter of the canal the next day. The terrain here is very similar to that of Dujiangyan, so there are not many adjustments to the drawings, and everyone begins to prepare a little bit according to her guidance.
After a few days of hurrying. Duan Qing told her that she could rest today.
"Naturally, I am in a hurry to repair the canal, why do you still rest?" I was a little puzzled, is the treatment here so good?
"No, Da Leng, today is the third Xi (tenth) of the New Year!"
Gu was stunned for a moment, this is Jiangnan. Although it was winter, she still wore a thin cotton shirt, so she didn't feel like a New Year.
Thinking about it carefully, she has no relatives and friends here, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't celebrate the New Year.
It's just that someone once said that he wanted to accompany her for the New Year, but when she came to Jiangnan, where was he?
At this moment, will snowflakes fall in the capital, and who will he walk with in the snow, and who will he tell the fairy tale of growing old?
It snowed heavily in the New Year in the capital, and everyone said that it was a good year, so the streets were full of festivities.
Baili Zhengde took annual leave, everyone could rest for a few days, worried about what happened to Baili Muyan, so he called him into the palace to celebrate the New Year together.
Han Qianyu has never been to the palace since she was sent out of the palace last time, not because she doesn't want to go, but because there is no Baili Muyan in the palace, he has already lived in the criminal department, and he only sleeps for three hours a day before continuing to try cases and check files.
After Baili Muyan was summoned to the palace, Baili Zhengde accompanied him to Empress Dowager Yi for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
The dinner table was full of all kinds of exquisite delicacies, everyone was discussing the ideas of the new year, and they were all praying there, and Baili Muyan was in a daze with dishes and chopsticks as if he couldn't hear anything.
He didn't go back to the palace because there was nothing to take care of, but he could see Gu everywhere, he wanted to forget about it, but he found that he remembered it so clearly.
They quarreled in the study, he was forcibly kissed by her, they looked at the snow tree together in the flower room, and he couldn't help but kiss her......
The kitchen, the yard, the attic, the study, all the places seemed to have Gu Li's figure, and he could even clearly remember Gu Li's expression at that time.
This feeling made him feel like he was about to collapse, she was dead, and there would be no more person in this world called Gu to love and hate.
After eating Chinese New Year's Eve, Baili Muyan walked to the dormitory in the snow, and his father-in-law held an umbrella for him on the side, but he pushed it away.
Gu Liao always mentioned snow, he once asked why, and Gu Li's answer was that he wanted to walk in the snow with him......
"Because, when the snow falls on our heads, we can grow old."
Baili Muyan raised his head, the snowflakes fell, and the side was empty, if she was still there, if they had already married, could they walk in the snow together now, could he say to her, I would like to grow old with you?
Tears slid down, his heart cramped, and Baili Muyan cried unconsciously.
"God, you're really cruel to make me hate someone I love dearly, and when I see her for the last time, it's ...... I hate her" (To be continued.) )
