Chapter 266: The Clever Sword God
After the Lantern Festival, the entire Spring Festival has completely passed.
The people have begun to prepare for spring ploughing, and the merchants living in other places have been preparing for a new journey in high spirits after these ten days of rest.
Although Jiangning City is a little busy, the atmosphere of the whole Jiangning is still as festive as it was a year ago. On the streets, pedestrians, pawns, small traders and hawkers, there is an endless stream. The children playfully threw the lit firecrackers on the street, frightening the little daughters-in-law who usually did not leave the door, and their faces turned pale.
The children, on the other hand, giggled and laughed, and stuck their tongues out at the husband and wife under the mighty gaze of the lady's husband, and then disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
The afternoon sun shines warmly on the body, warm.
Walking on the street, Liu Qingqing was like a spring fairy, attracting the attention of passers-by, walking, she was attracted by a plum blossom made of brown sugar on the roadside stall.
He stopped gently and looked at the sweet fragrance of the red plum made of brown sugar.
"It's beautiful!" Liu Qingqing stretched out her hand and wanted to touch the plum blossom, but halfway through her hand, she smiled slightly and took it back.
The shallow smile and quiet and elegant temperament overshadowed Jiangning throughout the afternoon.
"Boss, come on!" Beside him, the scholar smiled slightly after seeing the faint joy in the woman's eyes, walked over, and said to the shopkeeper.
"Two!" The woman turned her head, looked at Lu Heng, and smiled faintly, whispering, with a warm smile.
…… The sunlight shone on the bluestone pavement, reflecting the psychedelic brilliance.
The wind blew, and the air carried the strong aroma of the restaurant, as well as the wet smell blowing from the Qinhuai River.
On the street where there are constant pedestrians, the uncle and sister-in-law, one holding a candy flower, are walking and eating.
Seeing that the woman's pretty face was slightly red, she held the sugar flower in her little hand, lowered her head, and bit her lip gently. On the sugar flower, there is a small tooth mark.
Lu Heng stuffed the candy in his mouth as if he was eating a lollipop, and asked vaguely while swallowing the sugar juice, "Is it sweet?" ”
"It's sweet!"
The woman hummed softly, like a mosquito.
"Uncle, do you have something on your mind?"
walked quietly, but I don't know when, I walked to the Qinhuai River.
When the wind blows, the corners of the woman's skirt dance lightly, and the waterfall-like green silk is slightly messy in the wind. A strand of hair brushed over her lips. The woman hooked her fingers and tucked the hair to her ear. Turning his head, he looked at Lu Heng, who had a calm face and looked at the vast Qinhuai River, without saying a word.
"Oh, no!" Hearing this, Lu Heng came back to his senses from his thoughts, turned his head, looked at the woman's slightly frowning brows, pretended to shrug his shoulders easily, and said with a smile.
"Oh!" The woman looked up and gave him a gloomy look. There was a little sadness in his expression, and he let out a low sigh of oh, and then turned around and prepared to leave.
Seeing the woman's expression, Lu Heng shook his head with a wry smile.
He stepped forward, stood behind her, stretched out his arms, and gently wrapped his arms around the woman's waist. His chin was slightly lowered, resting on the woman's shoulder, gently sniffing the woman's fragrance.
When the wind blew, her hair moved with the wind, sweeping across Lu Heng's cheeks, which was extremely soft.
Lu Heng held the woman's hands in the palm of his hand, and held them so quietly, without making a sound for a long time.
The cold wind blew across the shore with a clammy coolness, and the wandering mind couldn't help but sober up a lot.
Lu Heng quietly hugged the woman in his arms, looking at the sparkling Qinhuai River in front of him, as well as the mist on the surface of the river, like green smoke.
After taking a deep breath, he hugged the woman's waist tightly and said lightly: "If one day, we have to leave Jiangning." What would you think about going to a completely unfamiliar place? ”
It's been a long time since the seventh day, but the news from Tokyo has still not come back.
Although before, Lu Heng had a certain grasp of the future of the whole incident. However, as time passed, that grasp began to waver.
After all, unlike in his previous life, Lu Heng was a single person and had nothing to worry about.
Nowadays, there are many people around him who need to take care of and protect themselves.
When I have a concern in my heart, I think about it more.
As time passed, Lu Heng, who was originally calm in his heart, also began to suffer from gains and losses, for fear that he would take a wrong step and lose everything.
After all, he could not determine or judge anything based on a couplet.
Moreover, there is no need for that.
The boat, a few days ago, was ready, and there is more than one. There is more than one way out.
If something happened, Lu Heng was very sure that he would take his relatives and retreat.
After calculation, it has been more than 20 days since Lu Yushi entered Beijing.
Today is the last day!
I took a deep breath, the cold air was inhaled into my heart, and the worry in my heart disappeared with the cold air.
The arm that was holding the woman's waist was a little harder. He lowered his head, looked at the woman with a light smile on the corner of his mouth, and asked softly, "You want to come with me!" ”
A very resolute sentence, there is no room for looping.
After speaking, he did not hear a reply from the woman. glanced down, but found that the woman was still smiling so shallowly, looking at the vast river with sparkling eyes, without saying a word.
"Hey, I'm going to talk to you, so let's save face!" Lu Heng smiled bitterly and rubbed his forehead, said to the woman with a bitter face.
"You've said it all, let me say something!" The woman turned her head, waited for Lu Heng with beautiful eyes, and said funny.
Although the woman did not ask, she had already guessed something from her uncle's calm gaze. As for why his uncle didn't say it, Liu Qingqing also knew it in his heart, and his uncle must be afraid that he would be worried.
What can make my uncle pay so much attention to and be cautious ......, hehe, what could it be?
Thinking about it, the woman spit out her tongue cutely.
I guess it's a serious matter.
But...... Although he thought of the seriousness of the matter in his heart, he was surprised to find that he didn't feel any fear or fear in his heart.
Turning her head secretly, she looked at her uncle with a flat expression and distant eyes, and her heart was sweet.
It's nice to have an uncle by your side!
"If you're really nostalgic for this place, then we can take the time to come back and have a look!" Although Liu Qingqing didn't say anything, the smile between his eyebrows made Lu Heng breathe a sigh of relief.
In her arms, Liu Qingqing shook her head gently, smiled shyly, curled up, and leaned on Lu Heng's chest.
There was a shy smile on the corner of her mouth, her beautiful eyes flowing, quietly looking at the sparkling Qinhuai River that reflected the afternoon sun, and whispered: "Where the uncle goes, the concubine will go!" ”
Hearing this, Lu Heng smiled happily.
He took a deep breath, and his calm gaze changed slightly.
Stretched out his hand, pointed to the distant sky, and said leisurely: "Take you all over the three mountains and five mountains, let our footprints ignite our dreams!" ”
Oh, a very familiar verse.
But I forgot who said it!
I lingered by the river for a while, and it was not until dusk that I realized that it was getting late.
The cool breeze blew, but I didn't feel the cold.
It's just that, inadvertently, I felt the woman in my arms curl up and squeeze into my arms.
"Let's go, let's go home!" Lu Heng took off his robe, draped the woman over his shoulders, and looked at the woman bowing her head shyly, he smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, and lifted the hair on her forehead to her ears. Said softly.
"Hmm!" The woman answered softly, turned her head, and after quietly glancing at the familiar Qin Huaihe, she turned around, without hesitation, and walked towards home.
When he was about to get home, he found Agui anxiously messing around in front of the door.
With Agui present, the woman who had been hiding under her arm was a light dodge and broke away from Lu Heng's arm.
I lost the faint aroma and felt a little regretful in my heart.
Hey, along the way, I was too disciplined and forgot about business.
Lu Heng was full of remorse, shook his head and sighed bitterly.
And the woman, looking at her uncle with beautiful eyes, she is smart, and she naturally knows what her uncle is thinking.
Seeing his uncle's frustrated appearance, the woman's beautiful eyes glared at him, but she smiled secretly.
"Agui!" Lu Heng stopped and said to Ah Gui, who was pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back and his hands.
Hearing the sound, Agui hurriedly turned around and looked towards the mouth of the alley.
"Oh, Childe, you're back!" Seeing Lu Heng standing in front of him, he greeted himself with a smile.
Agui was overjoyed, and hurriedly ran over, sighing with a bitter face.
"What's wrong?" Lu Heng frowned when he saw the empty door of the small courtyard, put his arm on Agui's shoulder, and asked in a low voice.
"Someone from Tokyo!" Ah Gui's face was gloomy, he looked at Childe, raised his hand and pointed to the courtyard, and said in a low voice.
People from Tokyo are naturally people from the Imperial Palace.
Both of them know this.
Just, what news did he bring?
Lu Heng thought about it lightly, raised his head, looked at Agui and said, "How many?" ”
Agui stretched out a finger and said, "One!" ”
One?
When Lu Heng heard this, he was surprised for a moment.
I thought about it for a while, and my eyes lit up.
Ah Gui was frowning, groping his chin, and said to himself, what is this person doing, what is the purpose, and who instructed it.
has been with Lu Heng for so long, and unconsciously, he is also affected by Lu Heng's behavior.
It's just that such an inference, uh, is really hard to compliment!
Ah Gui learned to say that when the son was thinking about things, he groped his chin like that and talked to himself. Unexpectedly, I thought about it in my head, but found that there were more loopholes. Moreover, all the information was mixed together in the end and became a pot of porridge.
Agui had no choice but to give up. When he raised his head, he found that Childe was looking at him with a smile, and there was still a slight appreciation in his eyes.
"Did you come up with something?" With a hint of expectation in his heart, Lu Heng looked at Agui and asked.
"This person ......" Agui frowned and took a deep breath. He whispered with a heavy expression.
Turning his head and looking at the son with a look of anticipation in his eyes, Agui said in a deep voice and word by word: "It's from Tokyo!" ”
The smile on Lu Heng's face suddenly froze, he struggled to squeeze out a smile, took a deep breath, looked at Agui with admiration, and nodded. Thumbs up and praise: "Clever calculation!" ”
