Chapter 16, Wu Zetian is just a girl
Jiang Wei had something else to do, but the letter handed over by Wu Erniang was a unilateral agreement, and the letter directly stated the agreed time and place, and then it was not separated. How can people refuse this?
is worthy of Wu Zetian, and he writes letters with such personality.
Jiang Wei thought about it, but decided to bring a gift, he didn't know what the customs of ancient Qixi were like. But I still chose a glass product, a transparent glass ball strung with string, which is used to play marbles with my sister.
The sky gradually darkened, and the streets of Chang'an were lit up one after another, rendering the night extremely beautiful.
Because of his weak health, Jiang Wei took a carriage to the agreed place. As soon as I got out of the car, I saw Wu Erniang standing slim under the lights, perhaps because of the lights, her red face looked very cute, but in Jiang Wei's eyes, those eyes full of aura carried the magic power of devouring the starry sky, making people dare not look directly.
"I'm late."
Jiang Wei smiled apologetically,
Wu Erniang was very sensitive, and saw that his gaze seemed to avoid him intentionally or unintentionally. She looked straight at Jiang Wei with an inexplicable smile, as if she had found something interesting, and as if she was in some kind of danger.
Wu Erniang is very beautiful, and in modern times, it will also give people a feeling that there is no unworthy feeling, high coldness, not Jiang Wei's substance, but a description.
Wu Erniang's fingers lightly skimmed over her ear, pinned the fallen hair behind her ear, and asked with a sly smile,
"Why don't you speak? Or are you afraid of me? ”
Jiang Wei smiled,
"No, it's just that I don't think this kind of day is suitable for the two of us."
was cold for a moment, and the smile gradually disappeared from Wu Erniang's face, and she frowned beautifully,
"I'm just a helpless woman."
Jiang Wei sighed,
"I'm just not good at dealing with girls, I don't mean anything else."
Wu Erniang looked Jiang Wei up and down,
"I didn't expect that there are also immortal disciples who are not good at things."
Jiang Wei smiled self-deprecatingly,
"There are many things that I am not good at, for example, my body is very weak, and I can't walk for half an hour at most."
Jiang Wei actually wanted to say that I only felt really under pressure in front of the first empress in history. Even if he just wants to treat the other party as a very ordinary girl many times, as soon as they meet, he will always remind himself in his mind that the other party is a generation of empresses, Wu Zetian.
Of course, he understands that his current idea is wrong.
Wu Erniang just raised her head and looked at the crescent moon in the dark sky,
"I miss my father."
Wu Erniang still looked up at the sky, and didn't seem to care what Jiang Wei looked at, just looked at it quietly, and her voice whispered,
"Since my father left our mother and daughter, everything around me has changed, I have seen many people clearly and seen the ugliness of the human heart. If there are gods and Buddhas in this world, I would love to ask them. Why? It's always so unfair to us women? It's always us women who are hurt? ”
Her tone seemed to come from the distant sky, illusory and unreal, as if it was full of endless sadness.
This is feudal society, Jiang Wei wanted to tell her, but he couldn't say it anyway. That's when he really discovered, ah! Wu Zetian turned out to be a girl.
Wu Erniang smiled self-deprecatingly and gently wiped away her tears,
"Let Childe see and smile."
Jiang Wei wanted to say, it doesn't matter. But he never spoke,
"But I can't be weak, all the women in the world can be weak, but I can't."
Jiang Wei didn't know what to say for a while, he still remembered. Or at the moment when I just opened my eyes, I saw my sister crying and saw the wound on my sister's palm. At that time, I had to be strong and not show my weak side.
I wanted to protect my sister and give her a sense of security.
What about Wu Erniang? And why is she?
"Come with me, okay?"
Jiang Wei nodded.
The two of them walked slowly in the night market, and the pedestrians who came and went seemed to be just a kind of scenery in the night.
Jiang Wei felt that the atmosphere was a little heavy, looking at the Qixi Festival a thousand years ago, he didn't want to waste this beautiful scenery like this,
"Shall we guess the lantern riddle?"
Wu Erniang shook her head, as if she had lost interest.
"I'm not interested in any of that."
Jiang Wei felt that he was too much of a failure, which may be what his friend said, his emotional intelligence was too low. He felt the need to make Wu Erniang happy.
Such a strong girl, at the very least, let her spend a happy Qixi Festival, isn't it the duty and responsibility of a man?
"Wait a minute."
Jiang Wei called the groom over.
"Go, go to my yard, there's a basin of water on the stove, you go and get it now, I'll wait for you by the pond over there." By the way, there is also an iron basin in the wooden basin next to the stove, and there is still some white powder left at the bottom of the iron basin, wrap some in paper. ”
The coachman nodded with a confused expression,
Jiang Wei was not at ease, so he added it again, and then let the coachman leave.
Wu Erniang looked confused,
"What are you going to do?"
Jiang Wei smiled mysteriously,
"You'll find out in a moment."
Wu Erniang nodded, not paying much attention.
Jiang Wei coughed,
"My parents once said something to me."
Wu Erniang looked at the calm lake and replied coldly,
"What?"
"Whether you are a man or a woman, a person who loves to laugh, luck is never too bad."
Wu Erniang looked confused,
"Luck? What is it? ”
"This ......" Jiang Wei looked embarrassed and scratched the back of his head,
"It's personal luck."
Wu Erniang couldn't help but laugh when she saw Jiang Wei's embarrassed look.
In the laughter of the light bell, under the moonlight, Wu Erniang's smile was very beautiful.
"It's not bad to come out today, thank you."
"You're welcome, just be happy."
After a while, the coachman returned, armed with an iron basin and a ball of paper.
Jiang Wei took the iron basin, opened the paper ball, and regretted it, because there was no iron wire. He looked around, and under Wu Erniang's blank gaze, he found a few branches that were relatively straight.
The water in the iron basin was boiled by Jiang Wei with baking soda and vinegar until it was transparent, and it looked no different from ordinary water.
Jiang Wei said with a smile of invitation,
"I'll do a magic trick for you."
"Magic?"
"It's a time to witness a miracle."
Wu Erniang felt that Jiang Wei's speech was very interesting and fresh.
With that, Jiang Wei scraped the powder with the tip of the branch and made it stick to the branch. Then put it vertically into the boiling soda in the iron basin.
Wu Erniang looked at it curiously, there was nothing unusual about the water in the iron basin, so what kind of miracle did it witness?
Wu Erniang's eyes suddenly widened, and her expression began to change gradually, with a blank, incredible, surprised, and rich change.
I saw Jiang Wei pinching the branches and putting them vertically into the iron basin, and after a while, the clear water began to freeze, to be precise, ice needles. It takes the tip of the tree as a point and spreads in all directions.
Ice, like dandelions, and like blooming ice flowers, freezes rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the ice needles spread rapidly, and after a while, they grow into fist-sized ice needle flowers.
Wu Erniang watched intently, deeply attracted by the ice needle flower.
Jiang Wei smiled slightly, sure enough, Wu Zetian is still a girl.
