Chapter 241 Eternal Autumn
"Bang!"
When Li Yu rode his horse into the door, the two tall and heavy doors also closed heavily, cutting off the last trace of the sunset.
The sun has set, the moon has not yet risen, and it is still dusk.
Li Yu got off the horse, led the horse, and walked forward slowly.
Although the door of the workshop has been closed, it is only forbidden for people to go to the street at this time, and activities in the workshop are not prohibited.
Someone is squatting on the threshold of his house with rice, turning the big bowl, snoring and drinking a piece of soup.
There are children yelling and playing hide and seek.
When the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law got together, they muttered something and whispered, and burst into a burst of happy laughter from time to time.
There were also a few bare-backed gentlemen sitting in a circle, shouting and playing with dice, and the dim light was almost impossible to see, and when it came to identifying the points, they could only pout and lie there to see.
Li Yu walked slowly, watched slowly, and tried his best to remember every strange or intimate scene in his mind.
Tomorrow, he's going to the West Market.
Although he has the "Celestial Wheel" in his hand, many times, the magic weapon is not omnipotent. For example, if he goes to Xishi tomorrow, he may not see Rao Geng's face, he will be stabbed to death by a knife, and he may not be given the opportunity to use the "Celestial Wheel" at all.
If he can succeed in killing Rao Geng, he must also run for his life and hold on for enough time before he can launch the "Celestial Wheel" and turn back time. Otherwise, he would return to the first day, and Rao Geng would also come back from the dead, why did his efforts come about?
Also, if he can successfully kill Rao Geng and then successfully escape from the West Market, will he be able to survive? It's hard to say. He can imagine that the government will arrest him, and the people of Chang Jiannan in Xishi will also arrest him, black and white will shoot at the same time, how many times will he repeat the scene of being arrested before he can really escape?
He didn't know.
Perhaps, this one will really die, but ...... He didn't hesitate.
When he came out of prison, everyone promised the emperor that on September 9 of the next year, he would definitely rush back to Chang'an to die, but Li Yu didn't think so, not only because he was already a human being in two lives, he didn't want to bear the murder for Li Yu before, but also he thought that the person who was killed should have died, and he should not pay for his life.
It's not that he's afraid of death, he just thinks he doesn't deserve to die!
And tomorrow's business, he must go, because of morality, so whether it is life or death.
However, he has too much reluctance, attachment to life, reluctance to his mother and auspiciousness, and his work far away in Longyou. He promised her that he would go back early, and now, it has passed the return date, and her temper will be very angry, right?
Li Yu stopped, looked up at the sky, and sighed bitterly: "What if...... Don't blame me for my failure to you. In life, nine times out of ten, things are not as expected, and sometimes, I am helpless. ”
……
A celadon clay pot, from the inside to the outside, is cleanly washed.
A basin of clear and bright well water rippled in the basin, like broken silver flowing.
One, two, three-petaled......
Red, purple, yellow......
The clean and beautiful petals are sprinkled into the clear well water in the pot, and a beautiful face is reflected in the water.
This is the custom of Tanabata Festival, picking all kinds of flowers, putting them in a pot filled with clear water, and placing them in the open air in the courtyard. Washing your face with this basin of water the next day is said to make your skin more delicate and white.
The basin was placed, and Ji Xiang ran into the room like a butterfly wearing flowers, and took out a needle and a thread. This needle is different from ordinary needles, the general sewing needle has only one needle eye, and this needle is specially made, with nine holes, called the nine-hole needle, which is specially used for "begging".
These nine-hole needles should be threaded in the night, and the more pinholes they wear, the more tricks they will beg. The night is dark, and the eyesight and finger dexterity and stability are extremely important. Auspicious girl...... In cheating, she wants to practice first, so that she can wear a few more holes at night.
Qixi Festival is the festival of the girl's family, and the girl's family "begs for skill" on this day, and it is said that once the Weaver Girl is blessed, she can become dexterous. I already have the auspiciousness of my heart, and of course I hope that I can have a good female celebrity and a good cooking skill.
"Begging skill, begging appearance, begging heart, begging face, begging my Langjun to be more affectionate, begging me for thousands of years."
Ji Xiang hummed a beggar song softly, trying to thread the needle.
"Jixiang, I'm back!"
The voice of Li Yu came from the gate of the courtyard.
Jixiang was taken aback, quickly put away the needle and thread, lifted her skirt and inserted it sideways, hid the needle and thread, and stood up happily.
Li Yu walked in from the gate of the courtyard with a relaxed face.
The horse was stored by him in Fangzheng's house, Li Yu did not have a horse gallery at home, and he did not prepare horse materials, and he didn't want Jixiang to see him lead the horse back, and ask too much. After thinking all the way, he decided to hide his actions tomorrow from Jixiang. If something has to be done anyway, why should she be afraid.
"Lang Jun is back!"
Jixiang greeted Li Yu happily: "Lang Jun didn't come back last night, people are worried about death." But I thought that today's Tanabata Festival, Lang Jun would definitely come back, and sure enough, ......"
The auspicious smile was like a flower, and Li Yu was stunned in his heart, and then he remembered what day it was. Of course, he didn't show it well, but he just smiled slightly and said, "Hmm! There are many friends here in Chang'an, and there will inevitably be more chores. ”
Jixiang grimaced and said, "People don't blame you." The meal is ready, you wash your hands quickly, go into the hall and sit down, and I'll serve the food. ”
Ji Xiang man's waist twisted, turned around to go to the kitchen, did not watch out for a big hand behind him, "pop", Ji Xiang oops, covered his buttocks with his hand, turned his head to stare at him with a red face, Li Yu twisted his fingers with a smile: "It feels good!" ”
"Bad guys!"
Ji Xiang is irrepressibly ashamed, although Fang Xin has long belonged to him, and he is ready to become his woman, but after all, he has not yet become a husband and wife, and he is so close to him, it is inevitable that he will still be shy.
Jixiang blushed and fled to the kitchen, Li Yu looked at her graceful back, but the relaxed smile she pretended to be disappeared in an instant. He was silent for a moment, then took a long breath and walked towards the hall: "Mother, I'm back!" Mother? ”
No one in the hall answered, and Li Yu subconsciously walked to the backyard. This is where Yang Siqi works, it's messy like a carpenter's workshop, and Li Yu doesn't usually come here.
Probably because tomorrow I have to work with Master Kang, Hua Lin, and Liu Yuntao to do a bloody man's earth-shattering move, although Li Yu is calm on the surface, in fact, it is inevitable that he will be a little at a loss, his mother and auspiciousness, he wants to get together as much as possible.
A large wooden workbench in the backyard was piled up with all sorts of weird mechanical parts.
Yang Siqi unkempt his hair, buried in the middle of this mess, holding a charcoal pencil, was immersed in outlining something, very focused.
Pan Jiaojiao shook off a round-necked robe and said to Yang Siqi: "Get up, try to be fat and thin." ”
Yang Siqi didn't raise his head, and said, "Haven't you measured it, no problem, just right, just right, put it away." ”
Pan Jiaojiao was furious: "I have to put it on and try it before I know if it is close to my body, I don't have to trouble making clothes, it's too troublesome for you to try on clothes, hurry up and get out!" ”
"Oops!"
Yang Siqi looked distressed, threw his pen angrily, and stood straight to the ground.
Pan Jiaojiao took the robe, told him to put it on, stood two steps away, looked at it, and said, "It seems to be okay, the waist has to be tighter, you turn around, I'll look at the back." ”
Yang Siqi said impatiently: "Oh, it's good, it's good, you don't have to try." As he spoke, he took off his robe.
Pan Jiaojiao said angrily: "Don't take it off, I haven't seen it yet!" Stand still! ”
Yang Siqi turned around impatiently, grabbed the drawings from the case, and studied them carefully.
Aunt Pan thought about it, what collar is it, how is the waist, how is the sleeve, and after talking for a long time, she slapped it and said: "It's done, I remember everything, take it off." ”
As soon as Yang Siqi heard that he had been pardoned, he couldn't wait to slap the case in the half-finished robe, sat down, hurriedly picked up the charcoal, and continued to sketch.
"You...... I'm just an idiot, I wonder how you got to where you got to where you are now. ”
Pan Jiaojiao was angry and funny, shook her head helplessly, and stepped forward to persuade her: "Come, raise your hand!" ”
Yang Siqi didn't raise his head, his eyes didn't turn, he still stared straight at the drawings, raised his left arm, and let Pan Jiaojiao take off his sleeves for him, Pan Jiaojiao said again: "Right hand!" ”
Yang Siqi handed over the drawings to his left hand and raised his right hand.
"Lift up!"
Yang Siqi lifted his body and let Pan Jiaojiao take off his robe for him, and as soon as the robe left his body, he immediately sat back and picked up the pen excitedly.
Aunt Pan folded her robe, shook her head, and walked to the side compartment.
"Uh...... Mr. Yang is an idiot, and as soon as he learns something, he is fascinated. Like a child, he's actually a pretty good guy......"
I don't know when, Jixiang quietly followed, like Li Yu, saw a scene in the courtyard, and couldn't help but explain to Li Yu with a little guilt, for fear that he would misunderstand something.
Although it is common for women to be divorced or their husbands are dead, it is common for them to remarry, but generally speaking, children always don't want their parents to find them a stepfather or stepmother.
Li Yu smiled, squinted at Yang Siqi, who moved the lamp in front of him, tilted his head and thought for a while, then sketched on the paper, and said: "Mr. Yang lives a pure life, and his mother is only in her early thirties, if she and Mr. Yang can be happy with each other, I am happy to see it." ”
Jixiang's eyes widened in surprise, she was really surprised that a child could be so reasonable. You must know that when she heard that her father was going to continue the strings when she was a child, although she knew that her father was in the prime of life and could not live alone for the rest of his life, she was very reluctant.
At that time, she didn't know what her stepmother was, and she was reluctant, not because she didn't want to have a stepmother, but because she didn't want someone to take her mother's place in her and her father's hearts. However, Li Yu's open-mindedness was really a little unexpected to her.
Li Yu glanced at her, and saw that she was stupidly opening her mouth, looking indescribably cute, and couldn't help but reach out and scratch her nose: "Oh, you haven't married yet, you still have the freedom to choose, if you find anyone better than me, I will allow you to divorce me at any time." ”
"Look at you, nonsense! It's time to eat, I'm going to call Auntie! ”
Ji Xiang glared at him with disgust, but he didn't know that Li Yu's half-truths were actually really explaining the possible future.
