Chapter 336: Catch the thief
He tiptoed behind the door, intending to scare Jiang Caiwei.
After posing, he held his breath and listened to the footsteps getting closer and closer, and Zhang Ru's heartbeat became faster and faster.
"Crunch!"
The sound of opening the door during the day is not very loud, but it is very clear at night, Jiang Caiwei was stunned for a moment, obviously startled, and then saw her tiptoe sideways through the crack in the door into the kitchen.
She raised her hand and patted her chest, and said in a voice that only she could hear: "But I am scared to death, let him know that I am a foodie, maybe he doesn't want me again." ”
Zhang Ru tiptoed two steps, and was about to pat Jiang Caiwei's shoulder to scare her.
At this time, after saying that sentence, she was suddenly stunned and muttered to herself: "Jiang Caiwei, what's wrong with you, don't forget that you were brought up by your grandmother." No, you can't really like him, absolutely not! ”
This sentence made Zhang Ru's body freeze in mid-air, he slowly withdrew his hand that had been in mid-air, retracted back into the corner, slowly squatted down, and tried to adjust his breathing to prevent Jiang Caiwei from noticing.
Probably because she thought that there would be no one in the kitchen at night, Jiang Caiwei's vigilance was very low, and after finding two steamed buns from the pot, she left the kitchen a little distracted.
On Zhang Ru's side, he didn't even have the heart to find something to eat. The only thing that surrounds my ears is the sentence that you can't like him, absolutely not.
All along, he was suspicious of the woman who appeared next to him, because the first woman he met in Daming who really gave him something was someone from the White Lotus Sect.
Everything tonight confirmed his conjecture, but also made his somewhat lively heart begin to fall silent again.
He thought he was ready, but he didn't expect that when it came, it turned out that he was still not ready.
He returned to his room in a dejected posture, fell on his back, stared blankly at the top of the bed, and looked like an all-nighter.
The next day, the early autumn rain was dripping, and the capital was shrouded in smoke and rain. Jiang Caiwei got up early in the morning and knocked on Zhang Ru's door early.
"Knock knock!"
There was no reaction in the room, and she was a little puzzled, and raised her hand to knock again.
Listening closely, there was still no sound inside, she reached out and pushed the door, and found that the door was not closed at all. She slammed the door open and said as she walked in, "Get up." ”
On the bed, Zhang Ru was still staring blankly at the top of the bed, he had not slept all night, his expression was very haggard, and his strength seemed to be drained.
Jiang Caiwei walked to the side of the bed and asked hesitantly, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Zhang Ru did not answer.
"What the hell is wrong with you, don't scare me, okay?" Jiang Caiwei was a little anxious, raised her leg and gently kicked Zhang Ru's foot.
Suddenly, Zhang Ru suddenly bounced up from the bed, sat up straight, and stared at Jiang Caiwei with two eyes stunned: "You don't like me at all." ”
Jiang Caiwei's delicate body trembled, she was stunned for a while, and stretched out her hand to touch Zhang Ru's forehead: "What's the matter with you today, is it that the wind evil has entered the body." ”
The cold palm touched lightly on the forehead, the touch was soft, and there was no hot feeling on the forehead, and the temperature was very normal.
Zhang Ru looked at Jiang Caiwei motionlessly, and looked directly into her eyes: "I don't have anything, but I know today, you don't like me at all." For you, getting acquainted with each other is just a play. ”
Jiang Caiwei stood up, frowned, and smiled slightly: "I don't know what kind of wind you are smoking today, if you don't want me to stay here, you can say it directly, there is no need to play these tricks with me." This girl likes a lot of people in Xinyang, and she came to the capital shamelessly, but she didn't come to find someone unhappy. ”
"Who's Grandma?" Zhang Ru said lightly.
Grandma's words made Jiang Caiwei panic a lot in an instant, and she argued forcefully: "I don't know what you're talking about." ”
Zhang Ru said word by word: "If you want to say, I'll say." The White Lotus Sect has a grandmother who once set off a large-scale rebellion during the Yongle period. This person's name is Tang Sai'er, and after the imperial court suppressed the White Lotus traitor, Tang Sai'er was nowhere to be found. If she was still alive, she would be an old thing buried in the loess to her neck.
Tang Sai'er adopted a lot of orphans, and the specific distribution of these orphans, except for Tang Sai'er herself, is only known to her two most trusted goddaughters.
People within the White Lotus Sect like to call her Grandma, because even if they are people in the imperial court, few people know who the Grandma of the White Lotus Sect is. ”
Jiang Caiwei said incoherently: "What are you talking about, I don't understand." ”
Zhang Ru sighed, his tone was a little sad: "I went to the kitchen to catch the thief last night." ”
Jiang Caiwei was stunned when she heard this, and stopped talking.
At this point, no amount of argument is in vain, it is obvious that Zhang Ru has a lot of doubts about her identity.
"Now that you know everything, let the people of the Jinyi Guard come and arrest me!" Jiang Caiwei said sadly.
Falling in love with someone and putting the rest of your life on this person is something that is unimaginable for people like them who are from the White Lotus Sect.
At first, she didn't want to accept Tang Sai'er's arrangement, but she had to accept such an arrangement. Her life was given by Tang Sai'er, and if it weren't for the silver-haired old woman who gave her a bite to eat, she might have died in the drought twenty years ago.
Zhang Ru slapped his head and said bitterly: "You go!" Don't let me see you again. ”
"I can't go." Jiang Caiwei said very simply: "Grandma told me that I want to approach you, and if the task is not completed, I will either die or wait for grandma to summon." ”
Zhang Ru raised his eyebrows and raised his voice: "Do you think I will keep a scourge by my side?" ”
Jiang Caiwei said: "You are not afraid that I will leak your arrangements in Fuzhou." ”
Zhang Ru stood up suddenly: "You are threatening me!" ”
Jiang Caiwei shook her head and said: "I don't have the capital to threaten you, I'm just asking for a dead end now, a dead end to really free myself." ”
Zhang Ru snorted coldly: "It's very simple if you want to die, just go out and pull out the waist knife and wipe your neck yourself, if you want to die, you can die outside, don't die at my house." ”
Jiang Caiwei suddenly laughed, and two lines of hot tears flowed down her smiling face: "You are tempted, hehe, you are tempted." ”
Zhang Ru said: "What about the temptation, you and I are not people on the same road at all, from now on, you take your Yangguan Road, and I will cross my single-plank bridge." In this life, it's as if you've never seen it before! ”
Jiang Caiwei repeated: "I said, I can't go. ”
Zhang Ru walked out of the room with an expressionless face, and left a sentence when one foot was still in the room: "You can leak all my plans, and I dare to guarantee that as long as there are people from the White Lotus Sect who mix in with the water master, I will kill one if one comes, and I will kill one pair when two come." ”
There is nothing more sad than naked deception, especially when Zhang Ru is gradually opening up to accept Jiang Caiwei after months of getting along.
A little earlier, a little later, Zhang Ru will not have any burden and pressure, he will have at this time.
Jiang Caiwei stood in place for a long time before leaving, and by the time Zhang Ru returned to the room after a while, Jiang Caiwei had disappeared.
Her things were in her own room, nothing had been touched, her horse was in the stable of the Hou Mansion, and everything else was still there except for herself, who was gone.
That night, Zhang Ru carried a pot of wine alone, and the ghost made a god climb up to the roof of the highest part of the Hou Mansion, looking at the bright moon in the sky that was covered by clouds from time to time after the rain, and drank alone to the moon.
The bitterness of the wine couldn't hide the bitterness in his heart at all, and after a sip of wine, his consciousness soon became blurred.
In a trance, it seemed that someone had come to his side, but Zhang Ru, who had a splitting headache, didn't care who it was, because at the moment he couldn't even see the other party's face clearly.
"Why are you so troubled?" The man sat down beside him, picked up the flask and shook it, then took the gourd from his waist and took a sip of it.
Zhang Ru got up drunk, tried to sit up straight, and put his paw on the shoulder of the visitor: "Bitter or not, you have to think about the 25,000 Long March, tired or not, think about the revolutionary old-timers." I said buddy, in this life, there is no time when there is no bitterness. Don't look at my current scenery, but my suffering, who knows. Open the sea ban, and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military enemies, Lao Tzu is not afraid. was scolded by the emperor, and Lao Tzu was not afraid.
But this love! This love Lao Tzu has lived for two lifetimes, and he hasn't understood it.
What do women want? Money, honor, a good life. Lao Tzu can give these things, but Lao Tzu gives them, who wants them?
Fuck his mother's life, fuck his mother's love, this is too unfair, Lao Tzu is a human being in two lives, but Lao Tzu still can't fucking see through a love word.
Oh, there's still wine, come on, don't talk about those fucking things, let's drink. ”
He obviously had a big tongue, and before he knew it, he had told his biggest secret. Fortunately, the man didn't understand what he was saying, and said that he was just drunk and talking nonsense.
The wine gourd was not handed to his hand, Zhang Ru's head hung down, his body was weak, and he sat on the roof and slid directly down.
Fortunately, this inexplicable person still had some means and grabbed him by the collar.
After taking Zhang Ru off the roof, the mysterious visitor took a deep look at Zhang Ru, and then bent down to imprint a kiss on his forehead, and the mustache at the corner of his mouth scratched so that Zhang Ru couldn't help but reach out and scratch it.
The mysterious person thought that Zhang Ru had woken up, so he turned around in fright, tiptoed, and soon disappeared into the night sky.
In the middle of the night, Wang Zhou patrolled the night, and accidentally saw Zhang Ru holding a white beard in his hand, and it took a lot of effort to get him into the house.
The next day, Zhang Ru, who was full of alcohol, woke up, felt that his head hurt as if it was about to crack, raised his hand and patted his temple, only to find that he was holding a furry thing in his hand.
When I looked at it, I realized that it was actually a fake beard.
