Chapter 40: Love is not possible

"Are you here?" Just when the two of them were fighting for each other, Lin Xuan suddenly arrived.

"You're going to scare me to death," Qi Yi was taken aback and complained.

"As an official of Daqi, you actually know the law and break the law, Lord Qi, do you know your mistakes?" Lin Xuan teased.

"How can you be virtuous with your master, what a good child, how can it become like this now?" Qi Yi glanced at Lin Xuan and pretended to be angry and said.

"What's wrong with me, no matter how bad I am, I'm better than you, how many shameless things have you done in order not to be promoted?" Speaking of this, Zhou Li seemed to suddenly think of something, leaned into Qi Yi's ear and said, "It seems that this year is about to be reviewed again, what are you going to do this time?" ”

Qi Yi naturally knew this news for a long time, and the more troublesome thing was still to come, the one behind him had already let go, saying that this time, even if he was tied up, he would tie himself up to Beijing to take pity on himself, and this carefree little life was at an end.

"What if I could help you?" Zhou Li said proudly.

"As long as you help me, I will pay for the meat this time" Qi Yi immediately gathered by Zhou Li's side.

"It's really stingy enough, Xuan'er, you can help him in a few days," Zhou Li instructed Lin Xuan.

"Okay" Lin Xuan accepted his teacher's entrustment.

At this time, the beef placed on the grill also began to sizzle, and a meaty aroma slowly began to spread.

Zhou Li and Qi Yi, the eyes of the two foodies, were glued to the barbecue, as if at this moment, everything else in the world was no longer important, and the only focus was the beef on the grill.

After the meat was roasted, a group of people sat around and chatted, it was very strange that Zhou Li and Qi Yi had a good conversation with these old farmers who had never read a book, and they drank muddy and talked about the short and easy life of their parents.

"The biggest question you think is how are we going to get back?" Lin Xuan hugged Zhou Li, looked at Qi Yi who was shaking on the side, and asked helplessly, Now that the curfew city gate is closed, it has become a problem for them to go back.

"I know a dog hole, we can sneak into it from there" If it weren't for hearing it with his own ears, Lin Xuan would definitely not think that such words came from the mouth of a county magistrate.

"Yes, you can go in that place," Zhou Li echoed.

Well, it was the image of two people that collapsed.

"I don't have a problem with Master, but are you sure you can, Master Qi?" Looking at Qi Yi's bloated body, he was a little worried.

"What's wrong with me?" Qi Yi was unconvinced, "Don't look at me fat," he said as he jumped up in the air and flipped over a heel fight, standing in front of Lin Xuan.

"I'm a flexible fat man," Qi Yi said proudly.

"Yes, a piece of flexible pork belly" Zhou Li secretly mended.

Lin Xuan felt that today's matter must not be said, otherwise he would definitely be killed by Lord Qi.

It was already late, Lin Xuan helped Zhou Li to quietly walk in front of the house, tiptoed open the door and walked in.

"You two still know to come back?" Who knew that Zhou Tong hadn't slept all this time, waiting for them to come back.

"Uncle Zhou" Lin Xuan could only look at him with a smiling face.

"This old man has drunk too much again," Zhou Tong walked beside Lin Xuan, supported Zhou Li with him, and let him go back to the house to sleep.

"Yao'er" The name appeared again in Zhou Li's mouth.

Lin Xuan and Zhou Tong walked outside the house after settling him down.

"Master is still thinking about his master," Lin Xuan has grown up now, so he is inevitably curious about the relationship between men and women.

"Yes, it's been so many years," Zhou Tong also sighed.

"It's been so long, and Master still can't give up like this" Lin Xuan wondered if the so-called love really had so much power?

"The most bitter disease in the world is lovesickness," Zhou Tong also seemed to be deeply touched.

"It seems that Uncle Zhou once had unforgettable feelings," Lin Xuan had some gossip at this moment.

"Even if the children of the rivers and lakes are affectionate, they can't escape and can't help themselves" Zhou Tong seemed to recall the past, and some feelings couldn't tell when they started and didn't know where they ended.

Lin Xuan didn't understand this, so he had to choose to be silent.

In fact, the woman Zhou Li was thinking about was not his wife, or he didn't have time to be his wife.

The specific story is caused by Lin Xuan's discovery of a painting when he was tidying up the study, the woman in the painting may not have the color of the country and the city, but there is an indescribable agility, and he asked Zhou Tong for the answer he got under curiosity.

In fact, the fate of Zhou Li and Du Yao is really wonderful, the parents of both sides were married as early as when they were not born, and then the two grew up together, childhood sweethearts, deep friendship, Zhou Lishan is famous for his talents, Du Yao is not bad, and she is also a famous talented girl. Moreover, Du Yao is not only proficient in poetry, songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also has a unique cooking skill, often researches some dishes by herself, and Zhou Li is her only diner, so there is no parental persecution between them, and there is no empathy and love, in the eyes of everyone, they are a match made in heaven, even they themselves identify each other as each other's lifelong partners.

But where is there so much perfection in this world, just when the Zhou family had already proposed that the Du family had begun to prepare a dowry, Du Yao suddenly fell ill, and the illness came too suddenly, which caught everyone off guard, and also made the two people who originally dreamed of a better future fall directly into the abyss.

Du Yao knew that Zhou Li was a dead-eyed person, so before he died, he told him that he must marry a woman who knew him, understood him, loved him, and took care of him for the rest of his life. But there is only one thing, don't bring that woman to worship her, because she is still selfish to him.

Zhou Li didn't answer, but said lightly, "Everything depends on fate."

A few years passed after Du Yao's death, and the Zhou family began to urge marriage, and even Du Yao's parents were persuading Zhou Li, but Zhou Li still looked like he didn't eat oil and salt, and he was alone until now.

Zhou Tong said that when Du Yao died, Zhou Li once said a sentence: "The fate of this life is over, and the heart has turned to ashes."

Lin Xuan was wondering if Master's appetite for food would also be to find the taste of that person's cooking?

Lin Xuan may really have reached the age when love first blossomed, I don't know if it was because he was infected by Zhou Li's love, and he was also looking forward to a love that belonged to him. I don't know what the person who belongs to him looks like?

Under the moonlit night, Zhou Tong had an extra treasure box in his hand, and the carved patterns on this box were very exquisite, and the texture was also excellent, and it was absolutely valuable. But for Zhou Tong, what is really priceless is the person who delivers things.

"After all these years, are you okay?" Zhou Tong looked at the bright moon outside the window, even if he had thousands of thoughts, he could only exist in his heart.

In the distance, a woman stood in the moonlight, and her eyes also revealed a little longing, but more melancholy.

"Aunt Qing" At this time, a young woman walked out, her delicate face seemed to make the fairies in the Moon Palace jealous, and sprinkled light on her body, wanting to find out her flaws, but it could only show her national color and fragrance.

"Why did you get out?" The woman was a little curious when she saw the girl come out.

"Father has already sent someone to hand over the prayer post, shall we go together tomorrow?" The girl knew what was on the woman's mind, so she asked.

"What if you see it, it's just more sad" The woman didn't want to see each other again, or she was afraid of meeting each other, because every time they met, it was like two cacti, as long as they got close, it hurt.

When the girl saw her like this, she no longer insisted on it, she didn't know what kind of power made such a person who was not even afraid of life and death afraid, what is the so-called love?
