Three Thousand Worlds Flourish Chapter 225 Maple Forest
"Madame, don't worry, the cold wind is too much tonight, and the mandarin duck bath is just to ward off the cold." He said this seriously, but Jiang Chengjia sneered and expressed disbelief.
It's cool tonight. Jiang Chengjia and Ning Nanwu are both very clean masters, even if there is a trace of sweat on their bodies, they will feel uncomfortable, and they especially like hot baths, so Ji Xianzhi and Qianshan have ordered people to prepare hot water half an hour ago, and before the two returned, they instructed the servants to warm the hot water again and again until the husband and wife came back from the South Courtyard.
As soon as the two entered the bathing room, they were entangled in the mist that swirled inside.
Jiang Chengjia thought that Ning Nan was worried that Ning Nan was going to do something to her while she was taking a bath, but she didn't expect that when he was bathing her, he wouldn't squint from beginning to end. After taking a bath, he honestly dried her hair, handed her a long coat and told her to put it on, then put on an inner robe, folded it at will, and entered the master bedroom barefoot from the small door.
Jiang Chengjia stood stupidly on the edge of the bathtub, stunned for a long time before following his footsteps, against the small door, and entered the bedroom.
Ning Nanwei, who was wearing a long white robe, was wiping his long hair with an extremely long silk cloth at this moment. Jiang Chengjia thought about it, quietly walked over, took the scarf he was dragging from behind and said, "I'll come." ”
Ning Nan was stunned, so he immediately hooked the corner of his lips and let go of his hand.
Jiang Chengjia stood behind him, carefully and gently drying his hair as he usually wipes his hair for himself.
"Tomorrow, I will go to see Jiang Taigong and Gu An, and roughly discuss how to find out more evidence of Song Zong's guilt and take him down in one fell swoop. Song Zong is an important person placed by my father in Guangzhou, and now even if the Li family returns to Nanyang and sends the couple surnamed Zong to Luoyang for me, although the incriminating evidence in our hands can make the Tingwei Mansion bite Song Zong tightly, it may not necessarily make Song Zong resign from the government and get the retribution he deserves. My father, if he wants to keep Song Zong, there will still be many ways. Therefore, there is only unforgivable evidence of Song Zong's crimes... Only then can we trip him and stumble over Meng Disaster's last hope. ”
When he mentioned this, he turned around, took her hand, climbed up to his waist, and without much effort carried her to his lap and sat down.
Jiang Chengjia sat obediently on his lap, frowned and asked, "So... This time, we went to the county office to meet Master Gu and Mrs. Jiang... Do you want to go to Guangzhou together? ”
"Yes. The next few days are going to be tiring, and I'm worried about whether you'll be able to hold on. He looked at her with a little worry, a little worried, really afraid that something would happen to her again. Just like last time, Jiang Chengjia was unconscious for two days and three nights, which scared him enough.
"If you're worried, let Sun Qi go with you this time, right?" She saw the uneasiness in the young man's eyes, so she mentioned Sun Qi's entourage, wanting to reassure him.
"That's it, let Sun Qi follow." Ning Nan nodded worriedly, but for some reason the sorrow between his eyebrows seemed to be deeper.
"What's wrong? Sun Qi is with you, you... What are the concerns? Jiang Chengjia wondered.
"Sun Qi.... It was the person given to me by the imperial brother at the beginning, I always felt that such a person was not practical by my side, so I didn't dare to reuse anything, I am afraid that I would take him there this time..."Ning Nan told the truth in front of her without any scruples, and the furrow between the eyebrows of Sichuan characters was a little deeper.
"If you don't feel at ease, why don't you let Song Yang beside me stare at him? Living in the same house with him and always with him? Maybe... Send an elite guard to keep an eye on him? Jiang Chengjia asked again.
"That's it. He has been following me until now, and if there is any outrageous behavior, I should have found out a long time ago... This time, he told him to follow him from a distance, and if there was a call, he would come again. Ning Nan was worried and calculated, and the puzzled Sichuan eyebrows gradually flattened, and his voice was gentle and doting: "On this trip, in addition to investigating Song Zong's crimes, the most important thing is your safety." ”
His warm and jade-like voice slowly flowed into Jiang Chengjia's heart, making her eyes red in an instant.
"Today, it's a little late, so I'll get up tomorrow, so I'd better go to bed early." Ning Nanwu just lowered her eyes when her eyes were red, blew out the lamp burning by the low couch, picked her up horizontally, and walked towards the couch with steady steps.
Covered by a light tulle tent, he took her in his arms, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
In the early morning of the second day, when Jiang Chengjia woke up, he found that he was already lying in the car. The car was covered with thick paper, and there was no cool breeze, and a thick mattress was laid on the car, and at this moment she was leaning on the soft couch in the car on Ning Nan's shoulder.
Then he turned his eyes to look at the young man on his side, and found that he was supporting himself with one arm, trying to lower his shoulders to the side for her to lean, and holding a bamboo scroll in the other hand, his legs bent, staring at the words on it with some difficulty.
She blinked, and unconsciously smiled and said, "Isn't Erlang tired like this?" ”
Ning Nan was startled, his hand slipped and almost fell, but fortunately, his legs hooked the top pillar of the inner compartment in time, so he didn't slide down.
He covered his numb shoulders, got up with a little difficulty, and reached the edge of the small bed, and asked, "Did I wake you up?" ”
Jiang Chengjia raised his head, lifted the bamboo curtain of the car window and looked out, saw the bright sun, and grinned: "It's all this hour, I should also wake up." When did you pick me up in the car? How come I don't know anything? ”
"Maybe you were too tired yesterday and slept soundly, and now the ox cart has arrived at the outskirts of the county, and there is still three incense sticks, and you can go to Zhuangzi." Ning Nan explained briefly.
Jiang Chengjia nodded and said, "Okay." ”
She licked her lips, sat up with her body propped up, and said with a slightly coquettish meaning, "I'm a little thirsty." ”2020
The young man glanced up at her, showed a doting smile, put down the bamboo scroll in his hand, pulled up the bamboo curtain and shouted outside: "Qianshan, pour some water for your girl." ”
I only heard Qianshan answer loudly outside. The young man lowered the curtain and sat back down.
Jiang Chengjia looked at the decoration of the car wall, and said with some curiosity: "Why did you seal the wall of this ox cart with a thick layer of paper?" ”
Ning Nan clenched her hand and replied in a low voice: "Sun Qi said... Your body is not good, you can't blow the wind, I'm afraid that if you get cold again, it won't be good... So a few days ago, he instructed Uncle Ji to find the car and seal the car wall. ”
Although he didn't look at her, the corners of his lips kept rising.
Jiang Chengjia grinned, and leaned on the soft pillow with satisfaction, only to feel that her heart was full of sweet honey, which made her feel happy.
After a while, Qianshan handed water through the car window, and when she drank it, she sat back comfortably beside him.
Although the car was moving slowly, there were few bumps along the way.
Probably because he was afraid that he would be uncomfortable to sit or affect the healing of the wound on his back, he ordered the convoy to move so slowly.
She leaned quietly beside him, watching him look down and carefully read the bamboo scroll in his hand, and saw God.
The bamboo curtain shone through a ray of sunlight, spilling into the carriage and falling on his thick and slender eyelashes, and a little golden light flew like a little elf. She stared intently, and the smile on her lips never stopped.
Ning Nan has always been fascinated by reading, and he didn't notice her expression at all.
I don't know how long it took, the ox cart quietly stopped, slowly stabilized, and Ji Xianzhi called outside: "Lord, it's here." ”
Ning Nan was worried, then she put down the scroll in her hand, answered, and turned her head to look at Jiang Chengjia, but saw her leaning sideways against the wall of the car, hanging her head little by little and falling asleep in a daze.
He hooked a gentle smile and called softly, "It's here, Ah Luo." ”
Jiang Chengjia whimpered, opened his blurred eyes, blinked a few times, and said, "So fast? I'm staring at you... Fell asleep. ”
She unconsciously said the words in her heart, but Ning Nan laughed worriedly: "It turns out that Ah Luo has been staring at me in the car? ”
These words made Jiang Chengjia blush, and immediately quibbled: "Who has been staring at you?" ”
She snorted, hurried out of the carriage, and got out of the ox cart with Qianshan's support.
Ning Nan followed suit.
At this moment, the ox cart stopped outside a simple and inconspicuous Zhuangzi, which was covered by layers of maple leaves, if it were not for the ox cart inside, I was afraid that this Zhuangzi would not be visible outside this forest.
Ning Nan was worried that she was staring at Zhuangzi in surprise, hooked the corners of her lips and said, "What are you looking at?" ”
"It's... Although this village is simple, the forest outside the courtyard is very beautiful. Jiang Chengjia sighed.
This village is only simple and elegant, but because of the fiery red maple leaves on the mountain, it is like a little cinnabar in the red bushes, which has become more delicate and beautiful. Rooted in the rich soil, these maple trees are powerful and spread like wildfire in and around this long road, staining the forest road and the lonely autumn in red. Different from the thick green of ordinary plants, maple trees are dazzling when they are green, and they are a mess and rotten when they are red.
"It's... Where my mother lived when she was younger... She loved it so much... In order to make her happy, I bought this Zhuangzi. But..."Ning Nanwu suddenly stopped, was silent for a moment, and sneered: "After I buy this place... Mother, she never came here again... I asked her why she suddenly didn't like it, and she said... Because I bought it, I ruined it too. ”
Ning Nan's worried eyes concealed a heavy loneliness.
Jiang Chengjia turned his head and saw the helpless smile on the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart.
"I loved it here. I don't agree with the mother's statement either... You're not ruining it... On the contrary, now you have given it a responsibility, it guards Jiang Taigong, the Jiang family. Jiang Chengjia shook his palm vigorously, turned his head and said to him seriously.
Ning Nan stared at the little girl in front of her worriedly and lost her mind. He looked at it for a long time, and the gray spots at the bottom of his eyes became more colorful. The smile on the corner of his mouth slowly turned from helplessness to joy: "If you like... I will bring you with me often in the future. ”
