Chapter 19: A Sleepy Dream (13)

Jing Yi looked down from the upper floor through the gauze curtain, and the hall on the lower floor of the theater was extremely wide, and there were more male guests at this time. The theater is very exquisitely set up, and if you go down from the porch, you can see every corner of the hall downstairs without worrying about being discovered.

Jingyi walked, picked up the small binoculars hanging around his neck and looked at it, and saw Tao Xiang and his son accompanying Pu Lao and Fei Yuming to come in from the outside - Tao Xiang was tall and wore a light-colored robe, so he could easily stand out from the crowd...... Jingyi's footsteps slowed down.

Tao Xiang was kind and pleasant at this time, talking and laughing with Pu Lao and Fei Yuming, both high-spirited and polite. He invited them to sit down, and then he sat down himself. At this time, Tu Huyi followed, whispering something in his ear. He nodded to indicate that he understood, and let Atul go, turning his face and not knowing what he said to Pu Lao, Pu Lao looked up and laughed......

Jingyi saw that Tao Jun was also there. He should have arrived earlier, sitting in the front row on the east side, and with him were the senior generals of the Northwest Army.

"Seventh cousin-in-law, what are you looking at?" Wen Pei walked fast, saw Jingyi lagging behind, and waited for her for a while, "Seventh cousin is here?" Guess if he'll see if we're going out and standing here? ”

Jing Yi shook her head with a smile and said, "How is this good?" ”

"No wonder my aunt always laughs at you, saying that your new woman is a paper tiger...... Or does the seventh cousin not let you always go out to meet people? I know what he thinks. There's a big beauty wife, I can't wait to ......keep it for myself," Wen Pei said with a smile, blinking, "No, no, he doesn't often take you to those balls?" Even the newspaper was on the table, and he was clearly very proud. ”

"Let's go, long-winded." Jingyi waved her hand.

Wen Pei and Jing Yi laughed, because Jing Yi wanted to take care of Qilin'er's small steps, and walked slower. Wen Pei was in a hurry, and walked in front of them in three steps and two steps. Jingyi shook Qilin'er's little hand and talked to him as she walked. Qilin'er's voice was soft, maybe she was really sleepy. Jingyi looked at it, and felt more and more pitiful and cute, went down the stairs, squatted down at the corner, and said, "Is it okay for the little aunt to carry you away?" ”

Qilin'er smiled, put a shallow dimple on her cheek, and shook her head shyly and said no. As he spoke, he turned around and ran, a small coral-colored gauze robe floating.

"Lin'er, slow down." Jing Yi saw that the stairs were high, and she was afraid that Qilin'er would fall, so she hurriedly shouted.

Qilin'er ran faster by holding on to the railing.

Jingyi chased after him, turned two corners, and disappeared Qilin'er, only to realize that she was led in the wrong direction by this child. She stood down and looked, it was already the ground floor of the theater building, and when she looked up, she could see people passing in front of her, and hear footsteps and talking. Most of them are dramas in the troupe, and Wu Sheng is doing somersaults and running tricks...... It's just a little far away, vague, and the voices of people in the hall. It's still a while before the show starts.

She saw the corner of the little coral-colored robe peeking out at the corner of the wooden staircase, and knew that the unicorn was playing hide and seek with her. He simply bent over and moved against the wall to catch him.

There was light in the cracks in the floor, and someone on the upper floor happened to pass by, and a little dust was falling.

Jingyi was blinded by the dust and hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief.

Suddenly, I heard a low roar that was almost angry: "Are you going with me?" ”

She was stunned and ducked to the side, still clinging to the wall. The voice came from overhead, low and low.

"I've already bought the tickets...... If you don't leave, you and I will die without a place to be buried...... Bring the unicorn, it's not that I can't afford to raise your mother and son......" The familiar male voice came down intermittently.

Messy footsteps on the wooden floor, as if there was an argument.

Jingyi finally heard the woman's lower voice...... Suddenly, she saw Qilin'er coming over, looking up at her, as if she was about to open her mouth to call someone. Jingyi took three steps and made two steps, hurriedly rushed over, and as soon as she grasped Qilin'er's small mouth, she heard the sound of the stairs knocking, and Wen Pei shouted from a long distance: "Seventh cousin-in-law?" Lin'er? Where are you two? Lin'er? ”

As you walk, you go down the stairs.

Jingyi didn't let go of her hand, and she didn't respond. She looked at the unicorn that was staring at her blankly, and jumped so much that she almost burst out of her chest......

Up the stairs, Wen Pei went down and up again; There was another mess overhead, and the footsteps finally disappeared. It was dim, and only a little electric light shone through the cracks in the floor, mottled the shadows of Jingyi and Qilin.

Jingyi finally let go, stroked Qilin'er's little arm in disguise, and said, "Don't run around, I finally found you...... Shall we go up? ”

Qilin'er's eyes widened, and at this time she showed sleepiness again. He yawned and stretched out his arm around Jingyi's neck. Jingyi picked him up and asked softly, "Sleepy?" ”

"Hmm." Qilin'er's soft body lay on Jingyi's shoulder.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with him, Jingyi's beating heart calmed down a little, patted him on the back, and whispered, "Lin'er, don't sleep, I'll sleep when I go back to the room later...... Beware of catching a cold. ”

She suddenly heard the opening gong sound, and the jackpot in the hall had been drunk, such a loud sound, deafening, but miraculously made her settle down. The gong and drum were in a hurry, and she looked around to see the direction, and instead of going back or up the stairs, she went in the opposite direction, towards the light...... Her neck was tight under the unicorn hoop, and she walked in a hurry, as if she was stepping on the drum every step of the way.

Walking in a hurry, I finally saw the end, and when I went up the steps, I touched the curtain above my head. She lifted the curtain and immediately heard someone call her Grandma Qi.

She stood down in response, but she was a messenger she didn't recognize. Look again, she is in the southwest corner of the hall, and the hall is full of male guests listening to the play, all looking at the stage, and few people notice her...... She wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, she didn't want to turn around and leave, but she ran into Tu Huyi head-on.

"Young grandma." Tu Huyi hurriedly made way for her and sent her away for a while before asking, "Where are you going?" ”

Jingyi looked at Qilin'er, who was already asleep, pointed at him, and said in a low voice, "I'll send him back." ”

Tu Huyi looked at Jing Yi holding Qilin'er alone, and whispered, "What about Qiu Wei, where is Young Master Sun's nurse?" ”

Jingyi walked out with Qilin'er in her arms, and was about to order someone to go up to find the nurse, but she didn't want to make a sound, so she saw Tu Huyi standing and called "Seven Less". She turned around, and sure enough, it was Tao Xiang who came out.

She saw that Tao Xiang looked like something was wrong, so she stood still. Qilin'er is extra heavy when she falls asleep, and she has been holding it for a long time, so it is a little difficult.

Tao Xiang whispered a few words to Tu Huyi, let him go, and then came over, and asked in a low voice, "Why did you fall asleep?" As he spoke, he took Qilin'er from Jingyi's arms.

Jingyi didn't want him to hug the unicorn, so he looked inside and said, "You better go in." I sent him back. ”

"Where's my sister-in-law?" Tao Xiang asked.

Jingyi said: "The colleagues of their opera studio want to take this opportunity to be lively, so they must be acting backstage......

Tao Xiang looked at her, then looked at Qilin'er, and said to the messenger on the side: "Go in and tell the master, I have something to leave, and I'll be back later." ”

"No need to ......," Jing Yi said hurriedly.

Tao Xiang glanced at her, and she had to shut up for the time being.

The two bypassed the screen together and walked out of the door of the theater, and Jing Yi said, "The eldest brother and sister-in-law are not in the house...... Is this closer to Lang Yuan? ”

She finally got her bearings. It is only a few steps away from the back gate of Langyuan. Seeing that Tao Xiang glanced at her, he didn't say anything, he disliked her for being confused, so he didn't say anything very interestingly, and followed him quickly. Tao Xiang walked really fast, and she had some difficulty following her. Fortunately, the road is not far, and you will be there after walking.

The back door of Langyuan was locked, and it took a lot of trouble to open the door.

Yue'er and Zhang's mother took care of the house, and when they saw them send Qilin'er back, they hurried over to help.

Jingyi asked Tao Xiang to carry Qilin'er into the guest room downstairs. I only covered the quilt and didn't take off my clothes, but the eldest young master came to pick it up later, and it was uncomfortable to toss the unicorn when I got dressed again.

When everyone went out, she sat alone on the edge of the bed and looked at the sleeping unicorn - a pink little face, so beautiful. She couldn't help but bow her head and poke the dimples on the unicorn's cheeks with the tips of her fingers. Qilin's skin was very soft, and her fingers touched it only gently, as if she was afraid that she would accidentally leave a mark...... Her hand stopped in mid-air, looking at the face of the unicorn, her heart suddenly churned as if it had fallen upside down.

Suddenly, there was a noise behind her, and her fingers were grabbed.

Jing Yi almost jumped up, turned her head to see Tao Xiang's face, her heart stopped, she patted her chest, and whispered, "You scared me to death!" ”

She had forgotten that he was still here.

Tao Xiao clenched her fingers and sat closer.

When the distance was closer, Jing Yi could smell the smell of wine on his body.

Apparently I drank a lot of wine. Although I can't see that I am drunk, the eyes that look at her at this moment are a little weird.

She was nervous by his eyes, and happened to be upset again, so she pushed him and said, "Go aside, don't disturb the unicorn...... You smell of alcohol and are going to smoke him...... Sister-in-law should be unhappy if she wants to know...... Ay! ”

But he did not listen to her, and took the hand of her fingers, and went down her wrist into her jacket, and held her thin arm. His palms were hot, and she was a little panicked. Avoiding him in a panic, the hand grabbed her arm in the jacket and rubbed it.

"Tao Xiang!" Jingyi called him in a low voice.

He sighed and leaned closer to her.

Jingyi avoided him and whispered, "Don't mess around." ”

She shook off his hand and glared at him in annoyance.
