Chapter 208: Stories and Songs
The charcoal fire in Xu is house burned too strongly, Ji Yue, who was covered with a thick cotton mattress, lifted the quilt, and her upper body was completely exposed, and the moon-white underwear wrapped her well-developed figure, rising and falling rhythmically with her breathing. Under the hair, a thin little face is like a finely carved porcelain doll, which makes people feel like it is broken when it is touched, I don't know what I dreamed of in my dream, Ji Yue's face actually had a hint of smile.
Seeing that she slept soundly, Li Qing was a little worried that she would catch a cold, stood up, tiptoed close to the bed, gently picked up the futon with both hands, and carefully covered her, although the movements were extremely gentle, but the sleeping Ji Yue still woke up, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Li Qingzheng leaning over her head, and couldn't help but cry out. A flash of panic flashed in his eyes, and the body in the quilt instantly curled up and rolled into a ball.
Li Qing looked at Ji Yue like a frightened deer in embarrassment, kept holding the horns of the quilt with both hands, and froze for a moment before explaining: "Ji Yue, you hit the quilt, I was afraid that you would catch a cold, so I wanted to cover it for you." As he spoke, he gently lowered the quilt.
Ji Yue's eyes suddenly showed a smile, the corners of her mouth curled up mischievously, her eyes stared straight at Li Qing, seeing that Li Qing's heart was furious, she hurriedly took a few steps back and sat back on the brocade stool.
Pulling the quilt with both hands, only exposing a small head to the outside, Ji Yue whispered: "Brother Li, when did you come?" ”
"It's been a while, are you feeling better?" Li Qingdao.
"It's much better, in fact, when I heard that you returned to Dingzhou City safely, I feel much better, but my body is not angry, and my heart is relaxed, but I can't support it." Ji Yue Road.
Li Qing shook his head, "Ji Yue, how can you do this? If you don't eat for a few days, even a stout man can't stand it, you are a slender woman, and your body bones have always been bad, isn't this practicing yourself? If you have three long and two short, how can I explain to your sister? ”
Ji Yue heard Li Qing mention Qingfeng, her expression couldn't help but darken, but she became happy again in an instant, and said with a smile: "There is such a delicate one, it's just that I've been hungry for a few days, my eldest brother is in danger, Ji Yue only hates herself for being a weak woman who is powerless, and she can't lift a knife and gun to save her eldest brother, so she can only burn incense and pray, praying that Guanyin Niangniang will be merciful and return my eldest brother to me." Skipping meals is just to show your sincerity to your mother! ”
Li Qing's head couldn't help sweating, Ji Yue said it very normally, it seemed to be commonplace, but it was thrilling when Li Qing heard it, Ji Yue's mind was clear at a glance, how could Li Qing not know that this remark contained a deep affection for himself, but he really regarded Ji Yue as a cute little sister, and he didn't think about it at all, coupled with the relationship with Qingfeng, he didn't dare to take a step beyond Lei Chi, it was Qingfeng, Shang Haibo and others were already quite dissatisfied, if they added another Ji Yue, Aren't you going to pick your nose and eyes with yourself?
Ji Yue is very cute, but also extremely simple, compared with Qingfeng, what makes Li Qing feel is complete relaxation, with Ji Yue, he can let go of the lawsuit, and really completely relax his tense nerves, seeing Ji Yue's current appearance, Li Qing regretted more and more that he let Qingfeng be in charge of the Statistics and Survey Department, maybe she let Qingfeng be a female master, then she may be the same as the current Jiyue, but now, she can't stop, Qingfeng can't retreat, And he did not dare to risk the paralysis of the Statistical Survey Department, and now that Dingzhou had reached a critical moment, any turmoil was something that Li Qing would try his best to avoid.
Qingfeng's ability is beyond doubt, he really needs to have a heart-to-heart talk with her, and Shang Haibo also has to talk about it well, for Qingfeng, he is too aggressive, this is not a good thing, at the moment, the two of them can still work together on top of the outside world, but Li Qing is afraid that once the foreign enemy is gone and the big thing has been decided, the two people he relies on the most will fight inwardly, and it will be a disaster for himself and the entire interest group in Dingzhou. Take a step back and open the sky.
Ji Yue saw that Li Qing was suddenly in a daze, obviously thinking of something else in her heart, she couldn't help but flatten her mouth, stretched out her hand from the quilt, pulled Li Qing's clothes, and said angrily: "Big brother, it's rare for you to come to me, can you not think about those troublesome business?" Let's have a little fun! ”
Li Qing sighed and came back to his senses, "Something that is a little happier, yes, something that should be said to be a little happier, what to say?" "My mind turned around, I actually opened my mouth, and I couldn't think of anything particularly happy, maybe in Chongxian County, I shouted to tens of thousands of people that we ate and dried that sentence was the happiest time for me.
Seeing that Li Qing was a little embarrassed, Ji Yue couldn't help but feel sorry for him, poor eldest brother, he couldn't think of anything to be happy about, "It's a pity that I can't get up, otherwise I will be very happy to play the piano, sing, and dance for my brother!" Ji Yue said gloomily.
Li Qing smiled and touched Ji Yue's black hair, "Silly girl, in fact, if you don't do stupid things anymore, and quickly raise your body, the eldest brother will be the happiest." ”
"Well, I must listen to my eldest brother! Big brother, why don't you tell me a story! "Ji Yue Na Na authentic.
"Storytelling?" Li Qingqi said.
"yes, yes, whatever the story!" Ji Yue looked very fast, looking at Li Qing, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles. The two blush on the small face stood out on the pale face.
"Okay, okay, tell a story, tell what? Well, once upon a time, there was a big bad wolf ......" As soon as Li Qing's words came out, he realized that something was wrong, and couldn't help laughing, and at the same time, Ji Yue also laughed, "Big brother, do you treat me as a child?" ”
"Aren't you just a child?" Li Qing said with a smile.
Ji Yue instantly put away her smiling face, "No, big brother, I'm eighteen years old this year, in other people's families, all of them are married and married at this age, and some are even mothers!" ”
Speaking of this, Ji Yue's face looked a little bad, and she turned her head sadly.
Li Qing didn't know what to say about this topic, both of them fell silent, and after a while, the sad Ji Yue's shoulders shrugged, and there was a slight sobbing, but it was crying, Li Qing stretched out his hand, wanting to comfort and comfort her, his hand reached halfway, but he retracted it again, and sighed silently.
There was a gentle knock on the door, and Li Qing hurriedly said, "Come in, what's the matter?" ”
The personal maid Huan Qiao'er stood at the door, holding a tray in her hand, and said timidly: "Dashuai, the medicinal porridge ordered by Lord Huan has been boiled, and Lord Huan said that if the girl wakes up, she will let the girl eat a small bowl." ”
Li Qing nodded, "Come in!" ”
Picking up a small bowl from the tray, stirring it gently with a spoon, looking at the steaming heat, Li Qingdao said, "Okay, you go down!" ”
Qiao'er hummed, and retreated obediently and silently, Li Qing held a small bowl and whispered: "Jiyue, get up and eat a little porridge!" ”
Ji Yue writhed in the quilt and said angrily: "Don't eat!" ”
"Okay, okay, Jiyue, don't be angry, you don't listen to my words, the doctor's words must be listened to, like you are now, if you are not good at recuperation, how can you play the piano and sing and dance for me, I still look forward to appreciating it!"
Ji Yue couldn't help laughing, turned around, put the green silk behind her ear, and looked at Li Qingdao: "Then big brother, if you feed me, I'll eat!" When she said this, Ji Yue was already red at the root of her ears.
Li Qingdao: "Okay, okay, as long as you eat, I feed you!" ”
took a pillow from the side, helped Ji Yue to sit up, leaned in front of the bed, carefully scooped up a spoon of medicinal porridge, blew it gently, and sent it to Ji Yue's mouth.
Looking at Li Qing with two eyes, the cherry mouth opened slightly, swallowed the medicinal porridge, and frowned: "It's so bitter!" ”
"Good medicine is good for disease, this is medicinal porridge, it must have a medicinal taste, come." Li Qing said with a smile.
"Big brother, can you sing? If you sing and feed me porridge, I won't feel bitter! Ji Yue made another request, Li Qing couldn't help crying and laughing, he was the commander of a state, and his subordinates had countless strategists and generals, and he actually wanted to sing and feed porridge for a little girl, if this was spread out, wouldn't it make people laugh crookedly, and have the heart to refuse, but when he saw Ji Yue's thin face and expectant eyes, he finally hated it, and thought about it for a while before he said: "Okay, I sing, you eat porridge!" ”
"The fire brightens the night miserably, when the city is broken, the sky is waning, that glance you smile like an epiphany, and in the blink of an eye wither, the blood-colored wind tears the flag, and the lamp at the head of the city is finally extinguished, and I can't see your head hanging high, and your eyes are contemptuous, and the butterflies that burn to ashes, the branches and leaves with broken roots, and the sadness that breaks free from the freezing in front of your eyes, and the blood flows through the long street, and the ears do not stop, and the city that guards you sobs in the heavy rain. (Uh, I love Hetu's songs, borrow them, don't spray me!) Ji Yue looked at Li Qing attentively, listened attentively to Li Qing's singing, the killing meaning in the lyrics, and the sadness, made her feel terrified, "Big brother, this song is so sad." ”
Li Qing nodded, "There is a very sad story in this song, do you want to hear it?" ”
"I want to hear it!" Ji Yue nodded. Stretched out his hand to take the bowl from Li Qing's hand, and ate it one by one, "Big brother, tell me about it!" ”
Twilight gradually fell, the light in the room gradually dimmed, Qiao'er gently came in and lit the lamp, and retreated, Ji Yue, who was lying on the bed, was also asleep, looking at the tears hanging on the long eyelashes, Li Qing couldn't help but feel distressed, maybe she was still reminiscing about the story that poured out the world in her dream, right? The founding emperor Bai Yan, the red-faced Xie Wan who was captured and beheaded after defending the city. "I don't remember the sunny or round shortage, I have seen the flowers bloom and the flowers, and gradually recall the difference between joy and hate, the surname of Wang Cheng has been rewritten, and I am still here to keep watch at night, waiting for what to break out of the ashes into a butterfly." Li Qing silently read the lyrics, stood up, exited the room, and gently closed the door for Ji Yue in his dream.
Walking out of the Taoyuan Xiaozhu, Li Qing took a deep breath, tomorrow, it will be a new beginning.
