(141), the epilogue of the night

Mo Ye approached Lin Shan's side lightly, and her mood became a little conflicted. The master looked tired, and he didn't sleep much when he saw off his aunt at night, so now he fell asleep on the back of the chair, and she couldn't bear to wake him up. But if you don't wake him up, I always feel weird in my heart to stay in the study like this.

Since she did that in the study a few years ago, although it was an unintentional mistake, she has not come to the study alone since. This is just the corner of her most familiar home, but every time she walks in, she feels an invisible pressure. Since that incident, this pressure has become even more pronounced. In fact, it is not so much the pressure as the shadow of the soul.

Mo Ye's gaze moved away from Lin Shan's face and looked at the desk. The writing items on the desktop are placed a little messily, which is Lin Shan's usual style, but this random placement of objects roughly makes the desktop present a square empty area, which should be a place where other things have just been released. There were a lot of fine crumbs scattered on the empty tabletop at this time, and Mo Ye noticed that there was a half-cut wooden strip on the corner of the table, which she recognized as the carbon core pen that Master used to analyze the mantra for her yesterday.

In fact, when he saw this pen for the first time yesterday, Mo Ye was very curious about it and wanted to try this kind of pen that can be written on paper without dipping ink. However, yesterday when she saw this kind of pen, Lin Shan was analyzing the secret method mantra to her, so at that time she put away other thoughts besides serious study. Focusing on this learning attitude, under the subtle guidance of Lin Shan, Mo Ye has been able to do a good job.

There didn't seem to be anything else going on now, and the carbon core was right in front of me, and although it was only half cut off, its black core was still a little beyond the veneer. Pick it up and write.

Mo Ye hesitated for a moment, and took another step closer to the desk. When she was about to raise her hand, she suddenly felt something kicked under her feet, and when she looked down, she saw that there were two other short wooden strips on the ground, which were also carbon core pens. It's just that these two are much thinner than the one on the table.

All three carbon pens were half-used. Mo Ye looked at the fine sawdust all over the table and on the ground, and sighed silently in his heart. In this way, Master basically didn't sleep all night.

However, when Mo Ye tied his hands and was about to turn away. Because the kick she had just stepped close to the desk and kicked the pen on the ground to the side of the desk, the sound had already woken up the sleeping Lin Shan, and he had only half opened his eyes before he opened his mouth and shouted, "Ye'er." ”

Mo Ye was slightly stunned. He replied sluggishly, "Master." ”

Lin Shan stretched out two fingers and pinched his eyebrows, and when he put down his hand, the tiredness in his eyes was already gone. He looked at Mo Ye. After his gaze was slightly fixed, he asked, "What time is it?" ”

Mo Ye thought back to what she saw outside the main hall door when she came out of her room just now, and then replied, "It's not dawn yet. She hesitated for a moment and then said, "Master, you haven't slept all night, so before dawn, let's go back to your room and sleep for a while!" It's time to wake you up this time. ”

Lin Shan smiled slightly when he heard this, and said casually: "You can see it?" ”

It's just that he didn't wait for Mo Ye to answer. He got up from his chair and walked out of the study on his own. Stand under the eaves outside the main hall door. He looked at the sky, and after a while, his tone was full of emotion: "The bright moon has just sunk, and it is the eve of dawn at this time. During this time, the stars were gone, and it was the darkest time of the night. However, this extreme darkness is also the shortest end of the night, and the dawn is only a matter of a moment, so people have to hurry up! ”

Mo Ye, who had just walked to the door of the study, looked at Lin Shan's back that couldn't distinguish the outline, and listened to what he said, feeling something in his heart. And at this moment, Lin Shan, who was standing at the gate with his hands tied, suddenly sneezed three times in a row. Mo Ye's heart tightened, and he hurriedly stepped forward and said with concern: "Master, guard against the spring cold." ”

Lin Shan turned around and went back to the house, rubbed his nose and smiled: "It's okay, there should be someone thinking about me, and at the same time someone is scolding me." ”

Mo Ye looked at Lin Shan and said suspiciously: "It turns out that sneezing three times in a row is like this?" ”

Without waiting for Lin Shan to answer, he heard a familiar voice coming from the backyard: "Ye'er, what did your master say, did you really believe it?" ”

The backyard connected to the door of the main house, and a figure walked in, and when he walked to the opposite side of the door of the study, half of Ma An's face appeared in the candlelight. He stood on his feet when he got there, then leaned against the door of the cubicle, folded his arms around his chest, looked at Lin Shan and said with a smile: "Three sneezes in a row, it's typhoid fever." ”

Lin Shan said in a somewhat helpless tone: "My wind chill is good, I just accidentally swallowed a breath of cool air just now, can you keep some virtue?" ”

Ma An said without concessions: "This has nothing to do with oral morality, I just tell the truth." In the past, the eldest sister was staring at you, and if she was home tonight, she would definitely light a charcoal fire in your study. Now that she's gone, I'm the only one left to remind you of it. ”

"Then I thank you so much." Lin Shan said and smiled, then approached Ma An, noticed a little grass clippings on Ma An's head, and asked, "You went to feed the horses after you finished moving the book?" ”

Ma An nodded and said: "It will be tired to walk a lot next, the horse is old, and it can't be exhausted." ”

"Then you who have fed the horses, feed us too!" Lin Shan patted Ma An's shoulder, with a strong sense of banter in his tone, his eyes pointed at Mo Ye, and then said with a smile: "We are old and young, and we are about to have a long journey, and we can't do it." ”

Ma An was stunned when he heard this, and before he could speak, he saw Lin Shan beckoning Mo Ye into the study.

Seeing this situation, Ma An could only sigh in his heart, and threw out a sentence: "I'm only good at feeding horses, and if the food you cook is not to your liking, you can't open your mouth to hurt me." With that, he had no choice but to go out the back door again and go to the kitchen to make breakfast.

Mo Ye followed Lin Shan into the study, she read what Ma An had just said in her heart, and at this time she couldn't help but ask, "Master, are you really okay?" ”

Lin Shan said casually: "What can I do, but your business is a little troublesome." ”

He lowered his head and pulled open a drawer at the back of his desk, reaching for an envelope on the left-hand side of the drawer. However, after hesitating for a moment, he still couldn't get out the envelope containing the drawings he had worked on all night. Giving up that thought, his hand moved slightly to the right, and the shift in this position was not visible from the angle where Mo Ye was standing, his mind changed instantly, and when he withdrew his hand, there was a thin booklet on the table.

Lin Shan's hand pressed on the booklet and stopped for a while, then he picked up the booklet and handed it to Mo Ye, and said at the same time: "This is the prescription note that you wanted to get before, but then gave up in front of me, that is, the original handwriting of Liao Shi. ”

Mo Ye took the booklet, her feelings were a little chaotic, but she didn't open the booklet immediately, and she didn't know what to say, just looked at Lin Shan silently.

Seeing Lin Shan's expression stern, he said, "I have calculated the time for you to take the medicine, and there are still forty-one days." On the way to Kyoto, someone will boil the medicine in advance and deliver it to the carriage on time for you to take. But when I arrive in Beijing, I will change a group of people to cook medicine for you, and then I may become very busy, and your aunt is not by your side, if I have a missed day, you should pay attention to the number of days. ”

Mo Ye's expression became cautious when he heard this, and he nodded seriously. But at this time, she had a doubt in her heart, and it was not difficult for her to predict that when she went to Kyoto, Master would be very busy. But why did two groups of people boil medicine for her before and after entering Beijing? And from Master's tone, we can see some clues, Master is more trusting of the group of people who boiled medicine for her before entering Beijing, what is the reason for this?

But Mo Ye did not ask this doubt directly. At this time, the things that Master said to her were very direct, but in this aspect, although they were revealed, they were not clear. Therefore, Mo Ye thought to himself, even if she asked this, he would not say it in detail. And this must have his own reasons, which are also likely to be unsuitable for him to know now.

Mo Ye doesn't have such an endless curiosity, she is already learning to control her own behavior, and she knows with a little experience, sometimes knowing too many things that she can't control will only increase her troubles.

After explaining the matter of taking the medicine, Lin Shan's expression eased, and he asked Mo Ye gently: "The departure is imminent, do you have any things to bring that need to be organized?" ”

Mo Ye just shook his head silently after thinking about it.

Lin Shan pondered for a while and said, "In the future, you will have to comb your own hair, is there a problem with this?" ”

Mo Ye's expression moved slightly, and he hesitated: "There is no problem with men's clothing, women's clothing...... It's a bit difficult. ”

Lin Shan smiled slightly, and said softly: "Don't worry, after entering Beijing, you will dress up as a man for the time being, and it will be enough to be the same as before." If I take you to meet anyone, you call yourself a child. When you need to dress in women's clothes, I'll arrange for someone to teach you. ”

Mo Ye nodded at this, and although there was a smile on her face at this time, a trace of gloom slipped through her heart. Although she is now very proficient in playing the demeanor of a delicate young man, she has now grown to the age of ten, and her physical femininity has slightly begun to develop, which she can't ignore anyway. And this self-consciousness as a woman gradually increases with the growth of the body, so there is also a yearning for the restoration of women's makeup.

However, when can I wear red makeup and walk in the world naturally, when will it be?

Mo Ye was thinking so in his heart, and a shout with excitement came from the backyard, instantly dispelling the faint melancholy in Mo Ye's heart.

"It's time to eat! Ma's fried dumplings, hot out of the pan. ”

As soon as the words fell, Ma An, who was like a peddler shouting, had already walked quickly to the main hall. Putting down the tray in his hand on the table, he turned his face sideways to the two of them in the study, and said, "If you want to eat, please hurry up." ”…… (To be continued.)
