76, Qu Liuzhen

"Where am I going?"

Qianqian was inexplicable, and reached out to touch his forehead: "Are you sick and feverish?" What nonsense? ”

Miao Fan said vaguely: "I didn't pass the ......"

Originally, she disliked him and was stunned, but now that he will fail, she will be even more disappointed and disgusted with him, right?

Qianqian was even more confused: "Of course I know that you didn't pass the test." She thought he was disappointed, so she spoke upside down, so she smiled and comforted, "Don't be sad, maybe things will turn around." ”

He looked at her, his eyes heavy, his always clear gaze overshadowed him.

When the lantern burned out, she bent down to pick up half of the residual wax, looked back at him and smiled: "Xianggong, we are home." ”

She spread her palm, and he hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand.

The warm palm made him feel slightly relieved at the moment.

"Those who love lust are like holding a torch, walking against the wind, and they will burn their hands......"

Unconsciously, sporadic Buddhist words overflowed from his lips, and Qianqian wondered: "Are you chanting? ”

Miao Fan shook his head: "I just accidentally remembered a sentence in the forty-two chapters of the scriptures, and I was deeply touched." ”

He glanced at the lantern that had been reduced to ashes and sighed quietly.

The Buddha said that the heart without love and desirelessness is clear-eyed, and those who are dominated by love are like holding a torch against the wind, and they are bound to suffer. Now that he is in pain, should he throw away the torch?

"Xianggong, I will definitely help you meet Ah Jiu." She led him in front of her, and she didn't look back as she spoke, but her voice alone showed how determined she was.

Like a fearless eagle, she always rushes forward desperately, fighting to break her head and soar high in the sky.

"Whatever you want, I'll do it for you." She turned her face as she spoke, a little worried in her smile, "But you have to promise me that you must protect yourself at all times and be safe, okay?" ”

Throw away the torch? Again, he asked himself.

No, if there is no light, who will keep him out of the endless darkness?

Even if she was burned all over her body, he had to hold her.

He smiled and replied, "Okay." ”

I have to say that Zhou Tao is still reliable, and his background is the object of everyone in Beijing, especially some of the tributes who were selected in the examination, all want to use him to climb the big tree of Zhou Xiang, and from then on they will soar. So whoever he wants to invite out to a drinking party is so easy that no one will refuse.

"Look at these tributes." Zhou Tao made an appointment to see Qianqian and gave her a list, "Several of them have ordinary family backgrounds and average learning, this time they can win the middle school is completely lucky, and the palace test is basically useless." If you want to start, pick from them. ”

Of course, the family background in his mouth is ordinary compared with the Zhou family, these tributes are not really nameless, they are from Tiannan and Haibei, and they are all big families in their hometowns, but they are inevitably different from Zhou Tao. Such a person Zhou Taoping has always disdained to make friends, but now in order to give thousands of opportunities to take advantage of, he actually took the initiative to invite □ Duan, which is really surprising.

Qianqian skimmed through the list and said indifferently: "You call people to take a look first, and I'll go with you." ”

Zhou Tao frowned: "You follow me?" ”

"yes, I'm going to pick someone myself." Qianqian looked at him maliciously, "Could it be that who do you have a crush on again?" Afraid that I'm going to spoil your good thing? ”

Zhou Tao also rolled his eyes like her: "Nonsense, I just think you follow me...... Nondescript. ”

Qianqian understands that there has never been a woman around Zhou Tao, she can neither pretend to be his concubine, nor can she say that she is his maid, if Zhou Xiaogongzi suddenly has a beautiful woman with him, I am afraid that this news will set off a lot of waves in Beijing.

Her eyes rolled: "I'm pretending to be a man." ”

The caftan is straight, the belt is tasseled, the pipa sleeves, and the green jade crown. Qianqian turned into a little boy with red lips and white teeth. She learned from Zhan Liantai, and also pinched a folding fan in her hand, walked in front of Zhou Tao and shook the fan open, pressing her voice melodiously: "Brother Tai, fortunately." ”

Zhou Tao shook his head, looked at her from head to toe again, and exclaimed, "It's really decent." ”

Qianqian covered his mouth, hid behind and said with a smile: "It's easy to say." ”

"Although it looks a little girly, I can't tell that it's a woman dressed as a man." Zhou Tao's evaluation is extremely high, but who knows that it made thousands of people unhappy, and he closed the fan and stared at him.

"Am I looking like it? Don't call me girly! She was dissatisfied with his ability to question his disguise, and scolded angrily, "You are the sissy, you must usually be the one below, and you are pressed every day!" ”

Zhou Tao was dumbfounded: "You...... It's just unbearable! He had a red face, ashamed and embarrassed, "Why are you a woman so open-mouthed!" ”

"Are you shy?" Qianqian squinted and smiled, picked up his chin with a fan, and said frivolously: "Are you still ...... Well? ”

Zhou Tao's face turned even redder, he glared at her for a while and hurriedly turned his face away, gritted his teeth and said, "It's none of your business, let's go!" ”

In the name of appreciating the peach willows in early spring, Zhou Tao invited a group of tributes to the suburbs of the village, he was arrogant and not easy to get close to, but if he really let go of the □ Duan to please him, it did not seem to be in harmony at all. Soon, the tributes put aside their speculation and believed Zhou Tao's coaxing rhetoric that "in the future, everyone will be colleagues, get acquainted with each other and make friends".

While Qianqian followed Zhou Tao and looked at this group of people, this group of people also secretly speculated about her origin.

is young, good-looking, beautifully dressed, and inseparable from Zhou Xiaogongzi...... Everyone knows that this person is most likely Zhou Tao's new favorite. Everyone was very interested and did not poke it, but pretended to greet Qianqian, asking her if she was still studying at home, preparing to participate in the next scientific expedition, and so on.

Qianqian didn't say much, and after a few simple words, he closed his mouth and never took the initiative to speak. The reason is that she is afraid of talking too much, if she changes to Ah Piao, who can ventriloquist, all kinds of timbres of men, women and children can be easily used, but this has become another meaning in the eyes of the tributes - the new favorite is embarrassed to be thin-skinned, or disdain to associate with them.

Gradually, no one cared about Qianqian, she followed everyone behind, watching them huddle around Zhou Tao and talk and laugh.

If her little monk is here......

She couldn't help but think of Miao Fan, she felt that he would definitely not be flattering, but would be alone and fade out of the dust. He was so good, so good that she occasionally thought that she had climbed high, maybe it was not enough to love him, she wanted him to do well.

Zhou Tao dealt with a group of people, his eyes secretly glanced at Qianqian, and he always wanted to make eye contact with her, but she buried her head in her own thoughts, and couldn't receive his "secret Qiubo" at all, so angry that the smirk on his face couldn't hold back.

However, when Qianqian retracted his thoughts, he inadvertently spotted a familiar face in the crowd.

She quickly opened the folding fan to cover most of her face, revealing only a pair of eyes, and looked at the man intently.

Li Sheng, the one he met in Jiangzhou.

Qianqian didn't remember his name, but remembered that Miao Fan knew three candidates at that time, surnamed Qin, Feng, and Li. Qin Sheng didn't get in the autumn and returned to his hometown to prepare for the next exam, Feng Sheng wanted to go to the left side of the door, and invited Qianqian to buy the Xu family's invitation to be put on the wrong side by her, and he was never hired after the lawsuit, and he also returned to his hometown in disgrace.

She vaguely remembered that Li Sheng was a somewhat high-minded person, who often offended people by speaking unpleasantly, and often behaved extremely arrogantly. Miao Fan's intersection with him is informal, but Qianqian doesn't like Li Sheng, and always thinks that he thinks very highly of himself and pretends to be.

Isn't he the most disdainful of the powerful? How could it be here?

After everyone visited the garden, they went into the house to rest and drink tea, and Qianqian looked at the gap and called Zhou Tao aside.

Before she could speak, Zhou Tao asked with a split face: "I called them to let you pick someone to attack, what's the matter with you looking absent-minded?!" ”

Qianqian said angrily: "I'm not idle, I'm thinking about important things, why do you care so much!" I don't care about me! ”

For Miao Fan, Zhou Tao held his breath and said, "Then have you thought of a good move?" ”

"Don't worry, let me ask you, do you know that person?" Qianqian pulled him and pointed to Li Sheng from afar, "Did you invite him here?" ”

Zhou Tao looked in the direction of her finger and was sure: "You said Li Mingwen?" I sent him the post, what's wrong? ”

"It turns out that his name is Li Mingwen......" Qianqian thought for a while and wondered: "How could he be willing to come?" ”

Li Sheng hates the most inclined to cling to the powerful, at least from his plain words, how could such a "high-minded person" get acquainted with Zhou Tao?

Her inexplicable question made Zhou Tao even more inexplicable: "Why would he not want to come?" He couldn't ask for it! ”

Qianqian handed him a look of "please elaborate if you want to say it".

"Once someone invited me to have a drink, I couldn't shirk it, and it just so happened that this Li Mingwen was also there, and I was recommended by others to say hello. You don't know how annoying he is, I have a relationship with him, and I can't even nod my head to make friends, and meeting again is just a greeting and polite words, but he preaches that he and I are close friends, very familiar, and the kind that wants to marry Jin Lan. When these words reached my ears, I didn't know how annoyed I was. How can there be such a brazen person, simply ashamed. Zhou Tao was angry when he said it, "It makes others think that I love him, and he doesn't look in the mirror, how dare I provoke that dignity!" Not to be blind! ”

Qianqian was surprised: "He is this kind of person?" I can't see it! ”

Zhou Tao continued to pour bitter water: "I can't see anything, I don't believe you, as soon as I pass, he will immediately come over and show goodwill." ”

Saying that, Zhou Tao went to demonstrate, and sure enough, as soon as he slipped in front of Li Mingwen, Li Mingwen greeted him and spoke, with a smile on his face, almost flattering.

Qianqian recalled his arrogant appearance in the past, and only felt like two people.

Some people are proud of their bones, such as Ge Mi, who is sloppy in appearance and vulgar in speech, but he is proud and independent, and he is an out-and-out hero. And some people are arrogant and arrogant, and their appearance is serious, but in fact, they are just hypocrites when they watch people cook. It's like Li Mingwen.

Or...... Just attack Li Mingwen?

Thinking about it, wouldn't it be too unkind to get acquainted? But on second thought, the people who do business are all slaughtering customers, and it doesn't seem to be a big deal.

Just when Qianqian was hesitating, Zhou Tao left everyone and came back, his face gloomy.

"It's Li Mingwen!"

Qianqian: "...... Yes? ”

"He said bad things about Tan Gongzi!" Zhou Tao was angry, "I heard that he also came from Jiangzhou, so I asked him if he knew Tan Gongzi, what do you guess he said?" He said that he didn't know each other, but he was just a general acquaintance, and he also commented that Tan Gongzi was stupid and wooden, and he didn't know how to be flexible and didn't understand people's feelings, so it was not worth making deep friends. He was furious, "How can this be true! actually slandered Tan Gongzi, he thought he was something, criticizing others behind his back, villain! ”

Qianqian was also angry: "Clean him up!" ”

The two of them are simply the same enemy in terms of defending Tan Miaofan.

The plan has already been decided, and now that the candidate is determined, the two of them immediately began to prepare. I saw Zhou Taopian return to the crowd, and invited with a smile: "I have hidden a few jars of wine in the next house, today's spring is beautiful, and the beautiful scenery of the good day cannot be disappointed. ”

Qu Shui Liuyu is actually a boy and buddy to eat and drink together, everyone is scattered to sit next to the winding stream, and the wooden tray with wine glasses goes down the river, if it stops in front of anyone, who wants to drink a glass and write a poem.

Zhou Tao sat at the front, Qian Qian and a half hid behind him, and Li Mingwen just sat at the bottom. The wine order began, and Zhou Tao pushed the tray into the water.

The stream meandered, and the tray soon stopped, and the recruited tribute first drank and then wrote poems, and if he could not make poems, he was punished with three more glasses of wine. After a while of the game, one jar of wine was drunk, so Zhou Tao asked someone to bring another jar.

"This wine is called Seven Nights Drunk, Hundred Years of Cellaring." He uncorked the wine, and the mellow and strong fragrance suddenly filled, "It is rumored that one drink will get drunk for seven days and seven nights, and two cups will be fourteen nights, and so on." ”

Everyone laughed, not believing such rumors, but eager to try this old wine.

The tray stopped again, this time just in front of Li Mingwen, he just wanted to reach out and pick up the wine glass, only to see Zhou Tao stand up and walk towards him, holding the wine jug in his hand.

"Li Gongzi, let's try this pot of seven nights of drunkenness."

Zhou Tao poured the wine and handed it to Li Mingwen, Li Mingwen was flattered, where did he dare not drink, he couldn't wait to drink it all, and smacked his lips and praised: "Good wine!" ”

"Another drink, then?" Zhou Tao couldn't help but pour him another glass, it was so gracious that Li Mingwen naturally couldn't refuse, and drank it boldly.

Zhou Tao smiled with satisfaction, then walked back to his seat, and the game continued.

Li Mingwen drank wine and got dizzy, and finally fell asleep to the laughter of a group of people, and then had a leisurely and colorful dream.

Until he woke up in a strange house.

The author has something to say: tired and happy! It's finally time to graduate! It's finally time for summer vacation! Have the goblins figured out where to play?

Uncle Jiu said that he had been very weak and weak recently...... 10,000 sorry! When the work is over, I will definitely regain my strength!
