"Where am I crying? How do your eyes grow? Qing Shu's hand covering his mouth hadn't been taken away, and his retort sounded muffled.

"Really? Let me see. Zhou Boyan smiled maliciously, his face getting closer and closer, and he was about to hit Qing Shu's face.

The warm breath sprayed on his face, and the dizzy Qingshu reacted, his face turned to the side, and the person moved to the side.

He failed to achieve his goal, so he could only give up regrettably. However, his big hand held her hand and never let go, and she moved, and he followed suit, and whispered to her, "Where are you fleeing?" ”

"Who's going to escape!" She muttered, the corners of her mouth raised, and she rested her head gently on his shoulder, "It's not a dream, is it?" ”

He was pleased with her approach, "It's not a dream. ”

"That'...... So, do I need to do anything to prepare? She suddenly felt nervous.

"Set up an incense case, and burn incense before pronouncing the decree."

"What else? What else to prepare? By the way, the eunuch who announced the decree still has to give a reward of silver, right? Do you have to give a lot of silver? "That's what it looks like on TV.

He chuckled, "Don't be nervous. In fact, it's nothing, the holy decree has arrived, you and Qingyang will lead the whole house to kneel down and listen to the decree. It's simple. ”

She hummed and stopped talking. Fifty hectares of fertile land, she is about to have fifty hectares of fertile land, so excited.

By the time the carriage reached Shilipo and stopped, Qing Shu had already calmed down. It was drizzling outside, and she was helped by Xiaojuan to get out of the carriage and walk into the famous long pavilion on the ten-mile slope with an umbrella.

Qingyang, Hao and Luo Xiaorong didn't fight the umbrella, and chased after Qingshu and ran into the long pavilion. Chen Qiaojiang couldn't follow, because he sneezed twice when he was about to go out, and he shouted cold. In this regard, the maids and mother-in-law of the Chen Mansion attached great importance to it, so they begged and coaxed Chen Qiaojiang to stay in the mansion.

Zhou Boyan was the last one to walk into the long pavilion. He walked to Qingshu and stood still, "To the east is a willow forest in the poetic drizzle, and to the west is the winding official road hidden in the trees. There is a creek to the south that cannot be seen from this location. Do you like the scenery? ”

"It's beautiful here."

Zhou Boyan looked at Qingshu's side face, and saw her expression of seriously appreciating the scenery in front of him, with a smile in his eyes, "Do you want to go to the stream for a walk?" ”

She shook her head, "It's all mud." ”

He glanced back, Qingyang and the three of them were meeting and discussing something in a whisper, and they didn't pay attention to this side at all. He withdrew his gaze and whispered to her, "I'll carry you." ”

She pursed her lips and smiled, ignored him, walked a few steps to the side, and sat down on the long stone bench in the long pavilion, quietly watching the rain.

He didn't say anything more, but stared quietly at her as she watched the rain.

"Brother, we want to go to the stream to play, is that okay?" Qingyang's sudden inquiry shattered the somewhat sweet atmosphere of tranquility created between him and her.

"No, you can't." She immediately vetoed it.

"Yes." Zhou Boyan gave a diametrically opposed answer to Qing Shu at the same time. Catching up with her disapproving gaze, he gave her a restless look, and then beckoned the guards guarding the carriage to come over, and ordered, "Take a few young masters to the stream to have a look, don't let them play in the water, don't let them get wet in the rain." ”

The chief of the guard, Hong Wei, commanded, "Yes, Childe." ”

He looked at Qingyang and them, who were a little disappointed, "Can you hear clearly?" Do not play in the water, and do not get caught in the rain. If you don't, the guards will bring you back immediately. ”

Qingyang and Hao looked at Qing Shu, and seeing that Qing Shu did not say anything to refute Zhou Boyan, they knew that there was no discussion about it. So, the three of them let out a long tune.

The seven brocade guards brought out left with Qingyang, Hao and Luo Xiaorong, and only Qingshu, Zhou Boyan and Xiaojuan were left in the long pavilion.

Qing Shu's eyes stared at the willow forest, "Xiaojuan, you go with you." If the young masters don't listen to the guards' dissuasion, just come back and report it to me. ”

Xiaojuan agreed, and followed with an umbrella.

The carriage was parked a little distance from here, and the sound of the rain was so loud that the coachmen guarding the carriage could not hear their conversation in the pavilion. Qing Shu took this into account and broke Xiaojuan apart. She looked up at him, "I have something to tell you." ”

He walked up to her in a few steps and sat down beside her, "What's wrong?" ”

"There's one thing, well, a Taoist aunt who claims to be pure dust has come to the house." She glanced at him and spoke very slowly, "Mr. said that Master Jingchen's surname is Wu, and his name is Mulan. ”

His expression was shocked, and then the whole person was stunned, and the emotions of surprise and overwhelm were clearly expressed on his face.

"She came to visit me out of the blue, and asked to see me by name. I refused, and she left me a note mentioning your name and Mr. Lu's name. So, I invited her in. Seeing that he couldn't come back to his senses in a daze, she reached out with some worry and gently put it on the back of his hand, "She wanted to give me the secret technique of oil extraction, but I refused." But she didn't take it back, and asked me to pass it on to you. She said that let you watch and deal with it, whether to keep or abandon it, it is up to you to decide, and she will not ask. ”

His eyes flashed with several different emotions, sadness, joy, anger, and a hint of melancholy.

She couldn't see him like this, "I'll give it to you when I go back." If you don't like it, you tear it up and burn it. If you like it, keep it as a thought. Don't be sad, don't be angry, okay? ”

Seeing the look of worry in her eyes, he immediately restrained his emotions, and clasped her hand with his backhand, clenching it tightly, "It's nothing, it's just that I thought of some unpleasant past." She...... She's just an old man...... What did she come to do? ”

"Said something inexplicable. She warned me that I could not marry until I was nineteen. ”

"What?" He asked, shocked.

"You heard me right, that's what she said. I thought she was weird. Before leaving, she met with Mr. Lu. They didn't know what to do with Lu Dao, and then they broke up unhappily. She was gone. That day, Mr. Lu looked preoccupied, and the whole person was not quite right. ”

He let go of her hand and wrapped his arm around her waist, "It's okay, don't think about it, it'll be fine." ”

"I know it." She looked up at him and couldn't help but reach out to smooth out his knotted brow, "No matter what happens, as long as your heart for me remains the same, my heart for you will not change." Remember the agreement between us? I wouldn't have considered getting married until I was twenty. Whatever the warning of the pure dust represented, it was meaningless to a woman who had vowed to consider marriage after she was twenty years old. ”

His reply was to hug her tightly with a determined expression, "You're mine." ”

She didn't speak, just smiled back at him. There was another thing she couldn't tell, at least not for now. At the same time, she sighed in her heart, a good date was ruined like this, a very nasty feeling. However, there is no difference between talking early and saying later, and it is certain that you will be unhappy. Since it can't be avoided, then you can't escape it, you can only face it.

They sat next to each other for a long time, and they didn't separate until Qingyang and they returned. Then, the group went home.

After dinner, Zhou Boyan went to Mr. Lu's side. Mrs. Lu went out with Shengge with a very eye-catching look, and explained to Mr. Lu where to go when she went out.

Mr. Lu glanced at Zhou Boyan's heavy face and sat down in front of the chessboard, "Next game." ”

Zhou Boyan didn't speak, and sat down opposite Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu held the white son, Zhou Boyan held the black child, and the two of them got down unhurriedly.

When the eleventh disc arrived, Mr. Lu spoke, "Don't stink your face and affect Mr. Chess's mood." ”

Zhou Boyan put down his son and asked in a stiff tone, "Has my aunt been here?" I mean, Aunt Lan. ”

Mr. Lu's hand holding Baizi couldn't help but tremble, but it was only a momentary thing, as if that tremor was just an illusion, "Yes, I've been here." At this time, the smile on his face dissipated.

He pondered and asked, "Do you think Aunt Lan is doing well?" ”

"There's nothing bad about it, except for getting older, it's no different from before in other aspects."

"What did you say when you met Aunt Lan?"

"I didn't say anything important. When people meet each other, what they can talk about is hello and I am good. After many years, everyone has changed. Whether it is a gentleman or a her, no one will talk to each other as much as they used to. ”

Zhou Boyan realized Mr. Lu's perfunctory intentions, and decided not to go around in circles anymore, so he directly picked up the words, "I can't imagine the appearance of Mr. and Aunt Lan quarreling, I don't know why you quarreled after many years of meeting?" ”

Mr. Lu's face was slightly cold, "It's just something inconsequential." It's your turn. ”

"Are you hiding something from me?" Zhou Boyan threw out the problem and gave a son at the same time.

"Nope."

"Sir, your answer was quick and crisp, and I had to think about it."

Mr. Lu was silent. After a long time, he put the chess pieces in his hand back into the chess box, "Bring the wine and have a few drinks with Mr." ”

Zhou Boyan didn't speak, but answered the meaning of agreement with actions. He asked Gu Shishi to take a jar of wine and a bag of peanuts from the three-catty altar.

There is wine and accompaniment. Mr. Lu was satisfied, and took two wine glasses and a wine jug and put them on the table.

Zhou Boyan didn't let Gu Shi wait, poured the wine in the wine jar into the wine jug by himself, then picked up the wine jug, poured it into the wine glasses of the two people, and then made a gesture of invitation to Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu raised his glass with a heavy face and took a sip of the wine. If Zhou Boyan falls again, he will do it again. In this way, he drank eight glasses of wine in a row, and put the wine glass on the table with a loud bang, and wiped his face, "Remember? Zhou Su, Zhou Su who made all kinds of snacks for you to eat when you were young. ”

Zhou Boyan looked up at Mr. Lu in surprise.

Mr. Lu said to himself, "Your mother, Wu Mulan and Zhou Su, no one can figure out the love and grievances between the three of them. The three of them often do things that are commensurate with sisters today and angry eyes tomorrow. ”
