"It's me." It was Tao Xiang's firm and deep voice.

Jingyi was frightened, and her heartbeat was still violent. She looked at Tao Xiang.

His face became more and more cold, and he was not shocked when he spoke: "I'll take you away first." This is not where you should be. ”

The lanterns on the porch are hanging high, but the lights are not bright. Jingyi just looked at Tao Xiang, and only the breeze passed between them. The tip of her nose was sour, and she whispered, "What do you want to say to me, you can say it here." ”

As soon as Tao Xiang stretched out his hand, Li Dalong came up and handed him his coat. He took it, shook it, draped it over her, and walked straight into the room.

Jing Yi glanced at the attendants who were on guard outside. In addition to Li Dalong, there were several more attendants around him today than usual. She thought something unusual had happened, and she didn't know it yet.

The coat on his body smells of him. It is a faint tobacco smell, and a fresh soapy scent. In this cold night, it smells a little cold.

Jing Yi closed the door casually, and Tao Xiang stood in the room, looking at the simply furnished room.

He looked at her and said, "The agreement is in your pocket." ”

Jingyi was stunned, reached into the coat pocket, and sure enough, there was an envelope.

"I've signed it." Tao Xiang sat down.

Jingyi opened the envelope and pulled out the thick documents inside. The top two copies are the divorce agreement. At a cursory glance, the list was very clear, and the content was not complicated. And at the place of payment, is his neat handwriting, written with the word Tao Xiang, as well as today's date, bright red seal.

She kept an eye on this one: the two had a daughter, who was raised by the man...... Blurred eyes.

"Tao Xiang, you're still ......," she choked.

Tao Xiang took advantage of her time to read the documents, and had already taken pen and ink from the table in the corner of the room. He took the brush, licked the ink gently, placed it on the inkstone on her side, and said, "Before the expiration of three days, I have become the hypocrite you described. It seems that your people are much more efficient than you think. ”

Jingyi was stunned.

"My grandmother was besieged by demonstrators on her way back from Shichuan, and if I hadn't been prepared, the consequences would have been unpredictable." Tao Xiang said slowly. Jingyi stood up suddenly, and Tao Xiao looked at her calmly, "I originally had no intention of giving you the girl, so it won't be as you wish." ”

Jing Yi pressed her hands on the table and propped herself up.

"How's Grandma?" Jingyi asked.

"How do you still care about grandma?" Tao Xiang asked rhetorically, "When you held the blade in your hand, didn't you think that there might be such a moment?" ”

Jingyi closed her eyes.

The tsunami-like procession seemed to pass in front of her...... She gritted her teeth and whispered, "I didn't mean to do that. ”

Tao Xiang looked at her and didn't speak. In his eyes, there were no mood swings.

Jing Yi lowered her head, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone in front of her were available, and what appeared on the paper was actually a chubby face...... Her fingers touched the pen, and the face vanished. Ten thousand arrows pierce the heart, and the heart and lungs hurt.

"Can you promise me?" She asked.

"Say." Tao Xiang said.

"Protect the baby." She said.

"Okay." He said.

"Promise me never to let her come here, even if she gets into trouble or makes mistakes...... Then I'...... Just sign it. She looked him in the eye.

"Okay." He said.

"What you promised me, if one day you can't do it, I have the right to take her away." Her eyes darkened...... Her daughter, a bone of her bones and a blood of her blood, will leave her, and her liver and intestines will be broken...... Her legs were also weak, and she had to hold on to the table for a long time before she could pick up the pen.

The end of the pen was a little astringent, and Cheng Jingyi had a lot of strokes in three words, and she had to stop a few times to finish writing her name...... There was no seal at hand, so she looked at the bright red cinnabar mark under his name for a while, lowered her head and bit the thumb of her left hand. Blood poured out of the wound, and it hurt heart-wrenching. The thumb of her right hand was on her left hand, stained with bright red blood, and pressed it on her name, and the blood was mixed with the undried ink.

Tao Xiao handed the handkerchief, but Jingyi didn't answer.

She pinched her bleeding fingers, and the pain spread from her fingertips to her body. She was trembling in pain, and even her eyes were shaking...... She looked at him, who was as steady as Tarzan in her blurred vision, and said, "I'll come back to pick her up." ”

Tao Xiang took one of the agreements, folded them and put them in his left breast pocket, and said, "You keep those deeds." You deserve it, and nothing less. ”

"Nan, and time, nothing can compensate for the two things I lost...... Jingyi reached out and picked up the deed on the table, and between two or three strokes, they were torn to pieces. Then she removed the gold-encrusted jade chain from her wrist and placed it on top of the shard. In the midst of the golden light, the bloodstains were even more shocking. "What I want, you can't give it to me anymore, Tao Xiang."

Tao Xiang took her hand, wrapped her fingers around her with a handkerchief, and tied it tightly.

Jing Yi unbuttoned her neckline and took off the jade pendant she was wearing around her neck. After holding it for a while, he took his hand and put the jade pendant in the palm of his hand.

The jade pendant also carried her body temperature.

"Give it to you...... ......Give it to you," she repeated, letting go.

Stumbling out, she walked out of the cold room.

There were heavy dark shadows outside, and they couldn't wait to gather around her, making her dizzy. It was clear that someone was calling her, she nodded in response, but for a moment she was a little confused, and she didn't know where she was at this time...... She walked on the fence, and in the clearing in front of the bamboo forest, there was moonlight like frost...... A trembling black shadow shattered the moonlight, clearly calling "Silent Ripples".

Jingyi stood down.

When she finally saw the people coming up from the clearing, tears were pouring out. She called out softly, "Grandma" - Tao Yinze was on crutches, held by Dong's mother, and reached over to hold Jingyi's hand.

Jingyi was physically and mentally exhausted after this whole day. She endured the scolding, fright and pain, but at this time, her aunt's warm hand made her feel a thousand pounds...... She was about to fall below the weight until she fell to the ground.

Jingyi pursed her lips tightly to prevent herself from crying.

Tao Inze also had tears in his eyes. She raised the dragon head crutch in her hand, scolded the bad girl, and hit Jingyi...... Jingyi didn't dodge, but when Tao Yinze's crutch was about to hit her, he turned a corner and went according to Tao Xiang. It was pumped Tao Xiang's leg and made a muffled sound.

Dong's mother was afraid that she would hurt herself, so she hurriedly dissuaded her.

Tao Xiang wanted to help her, but she wouldn't let her.

She held back her tears, gasped for a long time, helped Jingyi up, looked at Jingyi for a long time, and said, "Yi'er, until today, there is no way for my aunt and grandmother." ”

"Grandma......" Jingyi shook her head, "Yi'er can't stand Grandma...... Yi'er is leaving......"

Tao Inze looked at Jingyi, gritted his teeth and nodded.

Tao Xiang was afraid that she wouldn't be able to hold on, so he didn't say anything, so he came over and carried her on his back. Tao Yinze raised his hand and hung Tao Xiang's shoulder to let him put himself down, Tao Xiang ignored it, went out to send her to the car, and sent someone to send her back.

Tao Yinze is also an octogenarian after all, and he can't stand such emotion and anger, so he has to be arranged by Tao Xiang.

Jingyi came out and saw Zhang's mother also waiting outside.

"Young grandma," Mama Zhang came over and gave Jingyi a cloak, "Go back, wait for the young grandma to sleep." ”

Jingyi grabbed Zhang's mother's hand, didn't look at her, and said, "Go back...... Go back, Mama Zhang. Nan Nan ...... I don't need to coax me, I can sleep peacefully. ”

"Young grandmother......" Zhang's mother froze. She turned to Tao Xiang in a bit of a panic. "Young master, young grandmother, this ......"

Jing Yi turned around, looked at Tao Xiang, and said, "I'll leave now." Before leaving, I would like to visit Xuanruitang again. The old man is frightened today because of me. I don't mention this to make her sad, I should always kowtow to her. ”

Tao Xiang nodded. She seemed to be a person walking in the darkness, and after a few struggles saw the light. He told the sedan chair driver to come over, but Jingyi did not get on the sedan chair. So he accompanied her and walked to Xuanrui Hall.

Jing Yi walked silently in the front, and Tao Xiang walked behind her.

In the compound of Xuanruitang, several small sedan chairs were parked, and she knew whose they belonged to. Just as she arrived at Tao's house on the first night, at this time, in Xuanrui Hall, the women of the Tao family should be there except for Mrs. Tao. She knew it was just a curtain away, and they were all waiting for her...... She walked to the door of the main room and knelt down upright.

She kowtowed three times.

"Grandma Seven." Chen's mother stood beside her, reaching out to help her.

She didn't get up, and whispered, "Grandma, grandma, grandma, aunt...... Jingyi is not filial, and she can't serve left and right from now on. The elders have loved Jingyi for several years, and this kindness can only be reported in the future. Jingyi finally asked the elders to be young and caring. ”

She kowtowed three more times. This time, he couldn't stand on the ground for a long time.

The curtain moved, and she could see the hem of her skirt flickering in the moving light and shadow.

Her eyes blurred with tears, and she only felt a pair of warm hands pressed on her shoulders. Although it was only for an instant, the warmth in this hand was enough to spread throughout the body.

The old man did not speak, and the curtain flapped again and fell heavily.

She got up and stepped back to the steps before turning.
