Chapter 14: Emotion

Shang Hong stepped forward quickly: "How?" Where does it hurt? He touched Xiaojiao's forehead and touched her hand in confusion. Looking at Xiaojiao again, she was silent again, it was just whispering in a dream.

Shang Hong held Xiao Jiao's hand, he has been a powerful existence since he was a child, and he is the support of everyone. Those who knew him knew that no matter if those flying needles or those Tianyin faction people besieged him, they couldn't hurt him at all. Otherwise, Shang Jin's flying needle would never dare to be released, but this stupid girl regarded him as an ordinary person, an ordinary person who would be injured and needed help, and rushed into the battle circle in order to save him. Shang Hong only felt that there was a place in his heart that had become soft, as if the ice had melted for thousands of years, and some indescribable feelings came to his heart.

In this world, there are some people who are difficult to move, but they are like rivers, lakes and seas, strong and eternal.

It was night, and the small village east of the Western Everglades was quiet and peaceful. The pond in front of Mrs. Kang's house glowed in the moonlight, the night wind swayed ripples, and the shadows of the trees shone in the moonlight. Everything is quiet, and everyone is resting.

"Water, water~" Nian Xiaojiao muttered in a daze, her hand moving slightly.

"Sister." Listening to Xiaojiao's soft call, Qing Yu, who was sleeping on the side, woke up and immediately poured a glass of water from the teacup on the table: "Sister, the water is coming, the water is coming." Qing Yu lifted the quilt and looked at Xiao Jiao, who was lying on her stomach with a tight wrap on her back, and she didn't know where to start, and her eyes suddenly turned red, her sister was really offended.

Qing Yu hurriedly ran to the next room, too anxious and didn't care about etiquette, and knocked on the door heavily: "Master Shang, wake up." ”

Shang Hong was worried that Xiaojiao was already sleeping lightly, and when he heard the knock on the door, he rushed to the door wearing only a white underwear, his long inky hair hung down on his face under the moonlight, and his eyebrows and eyes were deep and confused when he first woke up: "Let's talk about it in the past." Shang Hong said hello to Qing Yu at the door and walked to Xiao Jiao's room, followed by Qing Yu.

"Water, water~" Xiaojiao still muttered.

Shang Hong looked at the blood stains seeping out of the gauze on his back, his heart was stagnant, he carefully picked up Xiao Jiao, let her sit on top of her, and gently supported Xiao Jiao's erect neck with his left hand.

Qing Yu hurriedly handed the water cup to Shang Hong, and Shang Hong sent the water cup to Xiao Jiao's chapped and white lips: "Xiao Jiao, drink water." For some reason, he even changed his name, and he had always called him Miss Nian before, indifferent and detached. Xiao Jiao, called out from his mouth, with that magnetic hoarse voice, it was very gentle and beautiful.

Xiaojiao was very thirsty, and when she touched the water glass, she drank it violently.

"Drink slowly." Shang Hong spoke softly.

With a glass of water, Xiaojiao slowly woke up: "Master Shang." Today's Shang Hong has changed from the black outfit of the past, wearing a white undershirt, without the usual coldness and arrogance, just a different kind of laziness and gentle eyes.

Xiaojiao shook her head: "I'm probably in a dream, how can Shang Gongzi be so gentle." She reached out and touched Shang Hong's cheek, this touch was warm and warm, with some man's strength and roughness, so real.

"Childe, put on your coat and it's cool at night." Zhong Yu, who had packed up, took Shang Hong's coat in his hand, ran in, and shouted at the top of his voice.

"Be quiet, my sister just woke up, don't disturb her rest." Qing Yu complained about Zhong Yu. Shang Hong also gave a cold look.

Xiao Jiao looked around in a daze, was drunk by Zhong Yu, and felt sleepy, seeing that she was sitting in the arms of the merchant prince, and her hand was still touching someone's face, she suddenly felt extremely embarrassed: "That, haha." Xiaojiao withdrew her hand, smiled awkwardly, and pulled the wound on her back, and suddenly her whole little face shrunk into a ball, and when she woke up, the pain of the wound on her back was as hot as a fire.

"Does it hurt?" Looking at Xiao Jiao who was frowning, Shang Hong was also distressed, if he could, he would rather be hurt.

"It's ~good~" Xiaojiao said weakly.

"Be strong." Shang Hong put down the water cup and straightened Xiaojiao's forehead. This action was too ambiguous and unreal, Xiao Jiao looked at it stupidly, but she didn't know how to react, and let her rough fingers run across her smooth forehead.

Zhong Yu and Qing Yu were also speechless at each other, they couldn't bear to destroy such a heartwarming atmosphere, quietly exited the room and closed the door, leaving only one room warm.

"That, Mr. Shang, can you put me down first?" Xiaojiao writhed in Shang Hong's arms.

"Xiaojiao." Shang Hong lowered his voice.

"Ahh Xiao Jiao replied naturally, and suddenly it seemed that something was not right, and after pondering carefully, she asked, "What do you call me?" ”

"Xiaojiao." Shang Hong shouted with a smile.

Xiaojiao was dumbfounded, and a flush suddenly appeared on her cheeks, and Shang Hong felt very cute.

"Xiaojiao, I seem to like you here." Shang Hong took Xiaojiao's hand and put it on his heart: "You are injured and unconscious, I am afraid of losing you." ”

"The merchant still has a marriage contract." Xiaojiao bit her lower lip and opened her mouth quietly.

"It's hard to help yourself. When I find her, I'll make it clear to her. For Xiaojiao, Shang Hong's eyes were full of tenderness and sweetness, and he could only apologize for the marriage of the fingertips he had never met.

"Let me think about it. Shang Gongzi put me down first. "The heart is very messy, Lin Keping, Shang Hong, and Shang Hong's fiancée who never appeared, Xiaojiao only felt a pain in her heart. With her hand on her chest, Xiaojiao was dumbfounded, the jade pendant, which had been worn close to her neck, was gone.

Xiaojiao looked down at the clothes on her body, which had been changed into a coarse linen dress, and suddenly asked nervously, "Who changed my clothes?" ”

"The owner of this house and her daughter changed it for you." Shang Hong replied.

"What do you have to hand over to you?" Xiaojiao asked nervously.

"Nope." Shang Hong replied.

Xiao Jiao stared into his eyes, seemingly innocently lying. So, where is the jade pendant? Is it still at the owner's house?

"I'm tired and want to rest. You can ask Qing Yu to come and take care of me. Xiaojiao said in a low voice, Yu Pei is the only thought left by A-Niang, and she must not be lost, and she must find out.

It was late at night, and Shang Hong was also afraid that Xiaojiao would be tired, so he placed him on the bed, carefully folded the quilt, and said softly: "I'm next door, just call me loudly if you have something." Then he exited the room and called Qing Yu back.

The next day, Shang Hong went to the kitchen early in the morning to give Xiaojiao food, and met Aunt Kang's daughter Aci busy in the kitchen. This is a clever girl, with a goose egg face, two big twisted braids, and a washed white navy blue floral dress, clean and plain.

"Hello Miss Aci, what do you have to eat?" Shang Hong is polite and authentic.

"Childe, wait a minute, boil the porridge, I'll serve you a bowl." Ah Ci bowed his head and replied shyly, he had never seen such a handsome boy before, and he was very shy.

"Huh." Shang Hong stepped forward and picked up an object on the cooking table.

"Is this, girl's thing?" Shang Hong asked.

"Ahh Ah Ci was thinking about how to answer.

Shang Hong fumbled for objects, and then took out his jade pendant from his chest underwear, the two overlapped, and this small iris jade pendant was just inlaid in the center of Shang Hong's jade pendant.

"They're split in two." Shang Hong looked at the shock and doubt in Ah Ci's eyes, and said, "My father said that the person who holds this jade is my fiancée. ”

"Ah Ci is willing." Ah Ci lowered her head and blushed, she was looking forward to this stolen happiness.

"But I have something I want to talk to the girl." Shang Hong's mind was complicated, and there was already a girl in his heart.

"What's the matter with Childe?" Ah Ci's hands were nervously interlocked.

"Can you return the jade pendant? In the next can agree to the girl's other requests, but ......" Shang Hong thought seriously and spoke with difficulty.

Ah Ci's eyes suddenly turned red, and she got up and ran out, only one word came from the air.

"Jade pendant, you can't return it."

It was a sunny morning, and when the first rays of sunlight jumped into Xiaojiao's room, Xiaojiao opened her eyes. It was a sleepless night, Xiao Jiao tossed and turned, thinking about the jade pendant left by A-Niang, Xiao Jiao has been waiting quietly, waiting until the place where she lives has the smell of fireworks, and waiting until the sun is stronger and higher.

"Qing Yu, call the master's daughter for me." When Xiaojiao couldn't bear the torment anymore, she ordered Qing Yu to call Ah Ci over.

"Okay sister. You were wounded, and she washed your body and changed your clothes. Qing Yu thought that her sister wanted to thank the main family, and after saying this, she quickly found Ah Ci.

Xiaojiao looked at the woman who came in, she was very clean, fresh, fresh and pleasant, and the simple linen-colored coarse clothes were clean and clean, and she was very neatly dressed.

"What is the girl's name?" Xiao Jiao spoke gently.

"The little girl's surname is Kang Mingci, if the young lady doesn't dislike it, you can call me Ah Ci." Ah Ci replied cautiously.

"Ah Ci, that's so nice." Xiaojiao smiled with her eyebrows: "Miss Aci, did you clean up with me that day?" ”

Ah Ci was flustered for a moment, stunned for a moment, and then lowered his head and replied, "Yes." ”

"Visible~ a jade pendant?" Xiao Jiao looked at Ah Ci without blinking, feeling very worried, not knowing if the jade pendant could be found in her.

The cold boy flashed in Ah Ci's mind, but he knew that some people were like flowers in the moon mirror in the water, they could only be viewed from a distance, and they were an existence that could never be reached. She slowly took out an object from her arms: "Miss is looking for this?" ”

"Exactly." Xiaojiao looked at her jade pendant and was really in Ah Ci's hands, and a hanging heart just fell, this was the only thought that Ah Niang left for herself, wearing it as if her mother had been with her. If there is a loss, I am afraid that it will be a lifetime.

"At that time, the young lady had lost too much blood, and her clothes and jade pendant were stained with blood. I can't wash it no matter how much I wash it, and my clothes are wasted. The rope of this jade pendant happened to be knitted, so I re-knitted it for the young lady. I just made it up last night, and if I don't look for it, I'm going to send it to you today. Ah Ci stepped forward and gently brought it for Xiaojiao.

"Thank you, Miss Aci." Xiaojiao touched the lost jade pendant and was very happy.

Ah Ci smiled cleanly: "Miss is polite." ”

"Miss Aci, I have a reluctant request below." Xiaojiao turned her head to look at Ah Cidao.

"Miss, you said that you are injured and it is inconvenient to get out of bed. If you need help, just ask. Ah Ci said in her usual calm and gentle tone, thoughtful but not warm.

"Can you keep it a secret for me?" Xiaojiao shook the jade pendant in her hand.

"Okay." Ah Ci recalled that Shang Hong mistakenly thought that he was the owner of the jade pendant, and his heart suddenly fluctuated, and he mustered up the courage to ask: "Does the secrecy include Shang Hong's son?" ”

"Yes, anyone, especially him." Xiaojiao said categorically: "Please." ”

"Miss is polite, I just promise." Coming out of Xiaojiao's room, Ah Ci was very excited, if the girl Yu Pei has never been revealed, is it not that Shang Hong Gongzi has always been his fiancée?

Ah Ci came to the pond in front of the door and exhaled a breath of turbidity. Looking around, this is really a boring and lonely village, is it possible to leave here with that identity? If you can, you can leave with Daddy and Auntie. A seed slowly germinates in Ah Ci's heart, and Miss Nian has not said it, so my Ah Ci can take its place?
