Volume 1 The Heart of a Young Man Chapter 73 A Woman Made of Water
The palace is still the same palace, the scenery is still those scenes, nothing more, nothing less.
Gao Changyu turned around and smiled politely at Li Xiao, and then walked through the moon gate and went to the back kitchen. Li Xiao rested in the backyard for a while before walking inside.
This trip to buy vegetables wasted a lot of time, mainly because Wanda caused trouble for no reason, so that Li Xiao had to teach a lesson, but fortunately, in the end, the kid felt the beating from the society, after all, he was honest, but I don't know if he will sue him about it.
In fact, it doesn't matter, Li Xiao is not afraid, anyway, he has been alone from beginning to end, anyway, he is about to leave Jingshi, and he can't find his head when he is looking for trouble, what is the panic. As for Gao Changyu, she may suffer a little crime, but there is no way, help or not, Gao Changyu will be bullied, and it may make her less troublesome if she helps.
The evening breeze rustled the leaves.
Under the bright moon, Li Xiao walked to the inner room and gently pushed open the door.
As soon as I entered the house, the bucket was gone, only a little heat and a few water stains on the ground remained. Qiu Xiang fell asleep quietly on the collision, and her chest looked very comfortable. On the bed, Chunlan lay peacefully, breathing quietly, like a sleeping beauty, but her slightly frowning brows were a little disobedient.
The room was quiet, there was not a trace of noise, only the faint sound of two breaths.
Seeing that the second daughter was asleep peacefully, it was not easy to disturb, so she slowly closed the door and retreated silently. And at the moment when the door closed, Chunlan on the bed slowly opened her eyes, glanced in the direction of Li Xiao, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and then fell asleep.
Li Xiao didn't see Chunlan's move, of course, even if he did, he would ignore it.
Slowly walked to the courtyard, raised his head and stretched his waist, only to see a full moon hanging high in the sky, like a cake, a little greedy.
The moonlight tonight is beautiful, perhaps because it has been washed away by the rain for several days, and it looks extremely clean, without a little clutter.
Lowering his head and looking at the calluses on his palm, Li Xiao couldn't help laughing, remembering that when he was a child, Chu Yi held his own sword practice every day, and he didn't stop from morning to night, and his immature little hands were injured like this, which made Chu Xin'er feel distressed for a while. But I also miss that time, Chu Yi never went out, only stared at himself to practice swords, and Chu Xin'er too, would give herself medicine every night, telling stories softly to coax herself to sleep.
"Ugh." Li Xiao sighed, looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky, remembered the Chu Mansion thousands of miles away, and also remembered the place that he couldn't go back to.
More than ten years have passed, Chu Yi is not often in the house, and Chu Xin'er is also busy. I really want to go back to that time, although I am tired and hard, but I am accompanied by my family, and it is warm. Thinking about his hometown again, it is estimated that he can't go back, being in a different world, for his original home, it can only be regarded as a memory, of course, this may also be a dream after his death, a real dream.
"I don't know how my family is doing."
Clenched his fist and felt the sense of reality coming from his hand, Li Xiao secretly said that after going back this time, he must follow Chu Xin'er, no matter where Chu Xin'er goes, he will follow.
"Phew." Li Xiao patted his head, how can he set up this kind of flag, forget it, there is no need to think about it, anyway, he can go back to Suzhou immediately, I just hope that nothing will happen at this time, and I will go home safely.
Lying on his back, a fragrance slowly wafted from the side yard, and when he looked sideways, it was the location of the back kitchen, and the fire was constantly rising in that direction, and the curling smoke rose from the firelight, and suddenly melted into the night and disappeared.
"His Royal Highness the County Lord has some skills." Smelling the smell, Li Xiao walked to the back kitchen.
Although Gao Changyu is the county lord, he has some skills in cooking, and smelling this taste can be regarded as a four-star level, which is only a little lower than the imperial dining room in the palace, but you must know that Gao Changyu is groping by himself, and there is no one else to teach, it is rare to have such a level of cooking skills, besides, the materials used are not top-notch.
"I'm tired." Li Xiao stepped over the threshold, stepped forward, and handed the handkerchief in his hand to Gao Changyu.
Li Xiao came suddenly, and left silently, which made Gao Changyu startled.
Gao Changyu hesitated for a moment, looked at his gray-stained hands, wiped them on his body, and then took the handkerchief and said, "It's dirty here, why doesn't Gongzi Li stay in the inner courtyard." ”
"It's boring, come and see, what, it's not allowed?" Li Xiao leaned against the pillar and said with a smile.
In fact, the kitchen is not dirty, it is obvious that Gao Changyu cleans it often, the firewood is stacked in an orderly manner, and there is no dust on the ground.
"It's not, it's just that Childe is a scholar, and it's not good to come to this place to cook." Gao Changyu opened the wooden lid of the pot, looked at it, then closed it, and said.
"Who told you that I am a reader?" Li Xiao walked to the door, looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky, and found a place to sit under the moonlight, regardless of whether the ground was dirty or not, sat down, and then said: "Li has no fame, and no second, except for a few copied poems, what kind of scholar is it." ”
"Copied poems?" Gao Changyu looked at Li Xiao, patted the dust on the ground, and sat down with the latter.
She didn't understand what Li Xiao meant, what copied poems, Li Xiao's two poems, she had also heard a little. A water tune song head, a remnant poem stepping on the sand, no matter which capital can be called a stunning work, if it is copied, how is it possible, although she has not practiced literature, but she has also been in the palace for a few years, and she has more or less heard of the poems of Haoguo and even the world, these two poems are so amazing, how can she not have seen them. It should be this Li Gongzi who is modest.
Li Xiao knew that Gao Changyu didn't believe it, but he couldn't explain it, couldn't he tell her that Su Dongpo and Yan had a few words, I'm afraid he wouldn't believe it, shook his head, looked at the empty courtyard, and said, "Forget it, you don't understand it." ”
Li Xiao didn't say anything, and Gao Changyu didn't continue to ask, hugging his legs, leaning on his chin, and looking at the bright moon in the sky.
For the first time in so many years, she could sit so quietly, without a single thought, without thinking about those troubles, and without fear that someone would suddenly appear, whip her, and insult her with the most poisonous words. She enjoyed the moment, and although she was only sitting on the stone steps, she was safe and did not feel alone.
Li Xiao is too, since he came to Jingshi, he has been no longer vigilant all the time, even if he is asleep, he has kept a copy. He didn't dare to relax, the plan had been brewing for more than ten years, it would not be a simple cure, he knew that there would be something waiting for him next, maybe there was no way to escape, or maybe he could dodge.
Why do you think so much, since those people didn't appear in front of you back then, why should you worry so much. Let's leave here first, and when I have a chance in the future, I will come to Jingshi again to find the truth about that courtyard. I just don't know if those people will let him go, but seeing that it has been so calm recently, could it be that they have given up on themselves and plan to kick him out of that plan.
It's so good, I just don't know if it's the calm before the storm.
"Gao Changyu, have you ever thought about leaving here?" Li Xiao leaned against the pillar and tilted his head to look at the sky.
Gao Changyu didn't answer immediately, slowly lowered his head, and his body shrunk slightly: "I've thought about it." ”
Don't look over, Li Xiao looked at Gao Changyu and didn't speak.
How could it not have been thought about. Gao Changyu clenched his arm tightly and gritted his teeth. For more than ten years, what kind of life has she lived in Beijing, pigs and dogs are not as good. None of those who knew her regarded her as a human being, and in the eyes of those people, she was just a joke, a tool for their amusement.
Princess? In the hundreds of years of history of Haoguo, there is no county lord as depressed as her, as humble as her. Where is the lord of the county, but a slave who has been given a name.
"Li Xiao." Gao Changyu looked at the sky and said, "You say, what's on the other side of the sky?" ”
"The vast starry sky, the endless universe." Li Xiao didn't think about it, and replied casually.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a tingling pain in his arm, and it seemed that it was Gao Changyu biting Li Xiao's hand. I bit it tightly and didn't let go for a long time.
"You're a dog, are you sick?" Li Xiao didn't dodge, just looked at Gao Changyu and scolded. Gao Changyu didn't refute it, just biting it.
I don't know how long it took, it should be tired, Gao Changyu let go of his mouth, said "comfortable" with satisfaction, and then resumed the posture of holding his legs.
Li Xiao glanced at Gao Changyu, patted his arm, and didn't look at her. Gao Changyu's bite didn't hurt, except for a feeling at the beginning, it was nothing.
Li Xiao knew why Gao Changyu bit him, and it didn't hurt anyway, so let Gao Changyu bite for a while. Shaking his head, he continued to lean against the pillar and look up at the starry sky.
Just as he continued to be depressed, he suddenly heard a cry from beside him, pear blossoms with rain.
"What's wrong with you?" Li Xiao looked at Gao Changyu, who was trembling and crying beside him, and asked.
I wondered, it stands to reason that he was the one who was bitten, and he didn't say anything, why Gao Changyu cried first.
Gao Changyu didn't pay attention to Li Xiao, but cried louder, it looked like the girl was being bullied, and the pitiful appearance made people feel pity.
However, Li Xiao didn't pay attention to it, sat up straight, and looked at the ground.
Who knew that Gao Changyu did not let go of Li Xiao, grabbed Li Xiao's hand, lay on the latter's shoulder and cried bitterly, crying loudly, especially sad in the courtyard where no one was, tears were moist, and it only took a moment for Li Xiao to feel what it means that women are made of water.
There's no way, Li Xiao can't say anything, although he has never been in love, but how do you know, at this time, you should sit quietly, let her cry enough, what comfort, what persuasion, it's completely useless, only when Gao Changyu is over himself, he can speak, otherwise it will only make Gao Changyu cry more intensely.
"Woo woo woo ......" Gao Changyu continued to cry, accompanied by a few coughs, a pair of small hands grabbed Li Xiao desperately, almost tearing his clothes.
Time passed like this, and Gao Changyu's cry lingered in the courtyard for a long time, without the slightest intention of stopping, but the fire in the back kitchen faintly had the meaning of extinguishing.
