Chapter 7: In a Dream

"He told me that in the middle of the night he saw you waiting for him at the gate of the yard, and he watched you from a corner not far away, and he said that he was not a good big brother, and that he had brought the dangers of the outside to the house.

He said that he was a failure, and that he would not even be able to support his family without you, and he said that he would cure you of the disease on his forehead, but he couldn't cure it, so he went to rob it, and he went to ask for a lot of miracle doctors, but all the medicines did not work.

He told me that night he saw you standing in the snow late at night, and when he got home, he cried..."

Qiao Yue couldn't help but interrupt Liu Xiang's words: "It's all my fault, my eldest brother has suffered so many sins for me, and it is I who has caused my eldest brother..."

Liu Xiang shook his head gently, with a thick intolerance in his eyes, he took out a silk scarf from his arms and handed it over, he had to say these words, even if Qiao Yue had cried into tears, he still had to say it, no matter whether Qiao Yue had amnesia or not, he wanted her to know that Qiao Shan had always been a qualified big brother.

He continued: "He told me that he was stabbed eight times that night and then went to Wild Wolf Mountain overnight, the Duan San who bullied you was cut to death by him with a knife, he said that no one can bully his sister, no one in the Qiao family can bully, even I can't, when I came back, I met me again, I lived in your house for more than half a month..."

Qiao Yue didn't know why, tears flowed uncontrollably, Liu Xiang said this, she always felt very moved, many of them were scenes that appeared in dreams.

It's a pity that she is very unhappy, how can these fragmented pictures not be continuous, she smiled and said: "Big brother will come back when it snows, he said it, I remember he said this, it turns out that he didn't lie to me, he came back, really came back, but I didn't see him..."

As soon as she finished saying this, Qiao Yue's brain suddenly hurt, as if she was about to tear.

Looking at Qiao Yue's painful expression, Liu Xiang finally didn't continue, maybe if he worked harder, Qiao Yue would remember everything, but when he saw Qiao Yue's self-blame, he knew that he had failed.

Yes, such a Qiao Yue is not as good as it is now, after she wakes up, will she be like Qizhou City back then, for her younger brother, for Qiao Shan, for everyone around her, she will never think about herself a little bit.

Liu Xiang opened his arms and hugged her in his arms, Qiao Yue's self-blame made him feel a little guilty, maybe there was something wrong with his expression, this way of remembering brought back a Qiao Yue who was full of self-blame and guilt, which made her feel indebted to all the people around her, which was not a good phenomenon.

The groggy Qiao Yueyi fell asleep vaguely in Liu Xiang's arms, and in her dream she returned to the night when the snow was flying.

The wind was very strong, and the heavy snow of goose feathers was falling all over the sky, and the messy yard had already been covered with accumulation, and the kicked and broken firewood door was lying in the yard, and the snow had accumulated on it.

There was a chill under Qiao Yue's feet, and when she looked down, she realized that she had no shoes on when she came out that night.

The white snow was so cold that a pair of feet quickly became numb, and when facing the wind, I found that I didn't have a little sense in my body, just a thin linen cloth wrapped around my body, and the wind was leaking everywhere, only when I looked into the distance, a heart of anticipation warmed my whole body.

"Big brother, you come out, I know you're back... You come out, Yue'er doesn't want your medicine, I don't blame you for being a bandit, and I'm not afraid of danger, you come back, let's live a good life, okay? Yue'er told Aunt Wang to marry your daughter-in-law, Yue'er can earn a lot of money, is it okay for you to come back, let's wait for my mother to come back..."

In this night's dream, she screamed in the snow like crazy, searched all the corners and didn't see Qiao Shan's figure, there were always two crystal tears hanging in the corners of her eyes, Liu Xiang wiped her lightly again and again, but it was still like this at dawn.

……

"You lied to me..."

Qiao Yue opened her eyes when the first rays of sunlight shone in from the window, and she said: "I searched all the corners and didn't see the shadow of my eldest brother, did you lie to me..."

Liu Xiang slowly let go of his numb arm and shook his head helplessly, this was too cruel for Qiao Yue, she didn't see Qiao Shan that day in her memory, no matter how hard she tried to remember, she wouldn't find it from the memory of that night.

Trying to move his stiff limbs, he couldn't let Qiao Yue look like this anymore, he smiled and diverted the topic: "Didn't you say that this time we came out to be bandits?" You see, we haven't robbed others yet, and we have already been robbed of 30,000 taels of silver by others, so it is not possible to go on like this, how can there be a reason to be robbed by others as bandits. ”

Qiao Yue knocked on her head, which was still a little drowsy, her hair was scattered, her delicate skin was looming, like a woman who had just come out of the bath, smooth and clean, her eyes became clear, the corners of her mouth slanted, and the smile she squeezed out had a hint of cunning: "Who said that it was robbed, who robbed who is not necessarily..."

The dusty memory needs to be opened slowly, it is obviously not good if it is too much, it is a good way to change the topic, Liu Xiangbai glanced at her: "Everyone has sent people to get things, we will suffer this loss." ”

"Stupid..."Qiao Yue slowly walked to the window, and slowly regained her proper color: "Didn't you ask me last time if there was any way to stop that vicious dog outside your house from coming out to make trouble?" ”

"Hmm" Liu Xiang said: "Yes, do you really have a way?" ”

Someone outside sent face washing water, Qiu Daozheng was still maintaining his self-righteous demeanor, Qiao Yue pulled up her hair and began to wash her face with water, she glanced at Liu Xiang and said: "Actually, it is very simple to deal with the evil dog, as long as he depends on you, you are a prince, I know that the evil dog you said is not a simple opponent, you are optimistic, after today, the people of Shenzhaotang will never be able to leave me, and they will really become a dog I raise." ”

Liu Xiang couldn't understand Qiao Yue's words, but Qiao Yue's confident appearance shocked him, this was the difference he felt when he saw Qiao Yue for the first time three years later, this feeling was as if he was a royal person with a natural sense of superiority.

After washing, someone brought breakfast, Qiu Daozheng still cared about the two guests very much, and said that he would send someone to take them to visit Changzhou Mansion, he did not break his promise, and after breakfast, he prepared a carriage and waited outside.

When he went out, Jiulan appeared in front of Liu Xiang like a dumpling, it seems that yesterday's injury was indeed very serious, and after a night, there was still no improvement, a district limped like a cripple, where is there still a little bit of a master. R1152
