The middle-aged man, who had not spoken much, returned to the room, still without saying a word, and looked at the woman with bright red lips, who understood and took out a clean dress and put it on the man.

As if bored, the woman sat on the bed and played with her hair after taking her clothes, and from time to time she took out a box of rouge to make up for herself. After the middle-aged man saw it, he felt a little angry in his heart, and he got up and knocked over the box of rouge with his hands, but the woman was indifferent, and even laughed dryly. She turned her back to the man, and said softly, "Don't throw a tantrum at me, if you really have the ability, you can still sit here?"

The man's face was silent, and he couldn't see his expression clearly. He squatted down again, slowly picking up the box of rouge that had just been overturned. After refilling it, he put the box of rouge on the table again, as if nothing had happened.

After catching a glimpse, the woman sneered: "It's really hard for you, and you have to be so restrained when you lose your temper." She walked over and knocked the box of rouge to the ground, and continued: "This man, what you have done, what you have to bear, just like this box of rouge on the ground, you have just knocked it over, even if you clean it up now, you think that others will not remember it? If no one knows, unless you do nothing, you must either do it to the end, or do not do it at all." After hearing this, the man snorted coldly and sneered: "Do you really think that I dare not beat you?"

A hint of mockery appeared on the woman's face.

"Forget it, I don't want to fight with you for anything, lest you spoil my big thing, pay attention to the surroundings of Gusuzhou these days, if nothing else, someone will come from the mountain." The man sighed and said to the woman.

The woman wanted to say something, but after thinking about it for a moment, she swallowed the words into her stomach again, and just nodded perfunctorily.

The man who had just cleaned up the dirt on his body suddenly sneered again: "I don't care if you want to or not, if the people over there know that you are not doing things well, you will naturally know the result, in addition, you have to speed up the affairs of Xiaoyi, some people.... But you can't wait. ”

The woman adjusted her breathing and said in a deep voice, "Do you really want to leave?"

The man closed his eyes and nodded slightly.

After hearing this unexpected and reasonable answer, the woman's face twitched slightly, but she finally lost the courage to question the man. After a few minutes of silence, she didn't look at the man and went straight out. She went out just to see Ji Zhengyi sitting in the courtyard, who didn't have a trace of expression on his face, looking at the sky, as if he was out of his body. The originally unhappy look on the woman's face changed in a blink of an eye, she walked over quietly, not wanting to make a sound, and when she walked behind Ji Zhengyi, she squatted down and said softly: "Xiaoyi, what are you thinking, you are thinking so intently." ”

Ji Zheng didn't react when he heard it, and still stared at the sky, but his pupils contracted slightly.

"Xiaoyi, listen, your father and I are going on a long trip, and I put some silver on the table, which should be enough. The woman then added, "Maybe it's going to be a long time, maybe it's going to be short, well... It depends on the attitude of some people, all in all, your father and I went out this time to do everything for you, I know what the result will be if you say this, maybe in the long future you will not be happy, but I don't want you to have any grudge against us, I know we owe you a lot, my father is always strict with you, always not smiling, and I, as a mother, do not seem to have fulfilled too many responsibilities, you are always alone, always so lonely, but you have to believe that your father and I do all for you. ”

The woman paused, her eyes flushed at some point, and she trembled slightly, saying, "Promise me, no matter what happens, you will not blame me and your father, especially you... Your father, he did a great deal for it. ”

Ji Zheng's heart tightened, as if he had guessed something. But he still didn't speak, he moved his head, and lifted it up slightly.

"There are some things that we can't control, and the purpose of some people's existence is to exist better for another person. The woman slowly got up, and she said every word tremblingly.

The man who slowly came out of the house saw this scene, his face was expressionless, but he walked a little faster as he walked past the mother and son, and he was carrying something in his hand, which was packed in a black cloth bag, and no one could see it.

Even, when passing by them, the man didn't look at Ji Zheng one by one.

Similarly, Ji Zhengyi didn't look at the man, his eyes were still empty.

The woman had fully gotten up by this time, and she kissed Ji Zhengyi's forehead with a slight heaviness, and the tears that slipped from her eye sockets just happened to drip on the latter's face.

Sometimes, when a kiss is over, it may be the best farewell ceremony.

Ji Zheng was stunned, he didn't respond.

The couple had already left the yard, perhaps a long way away.

The student who was most valued by the gentleman in the cabin thought of many books and many truths in his heart at once, but there was not a single book that described the present scene.

There are many poems about the parting scene, but there is no one in the three thousand sentences that writes about the current scene.

The boy knew that this might be the last time he would see his parents.

The young man who was still staring at the sky didn't know at first, maybe he deliberately didn't listen to what the woman said, or maybe he still wanted to deceive himself.

But when he caught a glimpse of the silver on the table, he knew that there might not be any way to fool himself. This day will be an eternal parting.

Because there is a lot of silver, and a lot of money can make him live alone for decades.

But he was not happy in the slightest on this day, even though he had a large sum of silver.

I don't know why, he never drank and wanted to ask Shang Zhiqiu to drink together.

-------------------------------------

Zhiqiu hadn't seen the old shopkeeper for several days, and just a few days ago, the old man said that he was going to see an old man far away. Zhiqiu asked with a questioning face, "Why don't you meet in Gusuzhou?", but the old man shook his head and refused to say. Zhiqiu only thought that the old man might see an old lover, and laughed at him.

Naturally, Zhiqiu was punished by the old shopkeeper for copying a lot of homework that day.

Even the next day, when the pen was unstable, Zhiqiu cursed the old man fiercely in his heart, hoping that he would not come back, so that he would not be punished for copying these damn books again.

Zhiqiu had learned a word called "a word into a prophecy" before, but according to the old men in the capital before, didn't the meaning of this word mean that those bad words that were said accidentally became true? Zhiqiu thought to himself, "Am I not saying it in my heart?" How can it come true casually.

Zhiqiu is really a little worried about the old shopkeeper, although the old shopkeeper looks at the body and bones are not weak, but this long road is long, maybe there is something outside, in case the thief robs the silver, the old shopkeeper can't think about it for a while, so he goes up and fights with the thief, and then is hacked to death with a knife?

The bookstore guy thought about it and began to speculate, and he speculated that the old shopkeeper might have been too excited after seeing his old lover, and it happened that the old lover's husband and wife had died again, so the two eloped hand in hand.

Hey, it's still a possibility, but what about the eldest lady in the bookstore?

As soon as Zhiqiu thought of this possibility, his heart began to tense again. No wonder this old man would take me as an apprentice, could it be that seeing my good looks and outstanding ability, he knew that he would definitely take care of this eldest lady? Although this eldest lady is quite passable, but this temper... It seems that I dare not compliment.

But this little bookstore should be worth a few silver.

The little boy looked up at the sky, and honest people should really be bullied.

The old shopkeeper didn't know that his apprentice was thinking so much in his heart, and he was on his way to Taihe Mountain at this moment. He did want to see an old man, but it was definitely not an old lover as Zhiqiu thought, but a monk.

It stands to reason that he should have arrived, but something went wrong on the way.

The old shopkeeper has encountered a gang of robbers a few days ago, the previous batch has been the old shopkeeper all the plates and robbed together, but the later batch is miserable, they glimpsed the old shopkeeper at this time there is no silver, the thieves who have not opened for a few days are naturally in a very bad mood, so they simply snatched a few books in the arms of the old shopkeeper, the old shopkeeper was a little helpless, but he didn't say anything, just asked if he could go now.

Originally, the thief was about to let the old shopkeeper go, but a ricketer next to him whispered to the leader: "This old thing has no silver on it, a poor ghost, and those broken books are not worth much, but we can't put him back so lightly, I see that this old thing has books on him, he must be a reader, and he should also settle accounts, why don't you leave him and settle accounts for us?" It just so happens that the brothers don't know how to settle accounts, and they don't know why our money is spent so quickly, so we have to let this old thing sort it out for us. When the leader heard this, he felt that what Rickets said made some sense, so he slapped Rickets on the shoulder and scolded with a smile, "You kid is still a little useful." ”

So the old shopkeeper was forced to stay as a bookkeeper, and finally stayed for two days to settle the account clearly, and then the leader was happy to let the old shopkeeper go.

So the old shopkeeper hadn't arrived at Taihe Mountain yet, but fortunately, the monk always knew that he didn't like punctuality, so he didn't hurry in his heart, and began to rush over slowly.

At the foot of Taihe Mountain, there is a scholar who has arrived, holding a dog's tail grass in his hand.
