Chapter 173: Matters of the Heart
ββ¦β¦ Tianjin is also a big city, and it is not too far from Yanjing, so I don't think there is anything special. I just had a little shopping with the teacher and came back. β
As soon as the teacher came back, he saw the wine sent by the little county lord, and immediately shouted to taste it. This taste was even more unbearable on our own ship, and I had to accompany him to visit. β
Although Ke Mingxu verbally said that he didn't encounter anything interesting in Tianjin, he talked about these things with a relaxed expression, sometimes witty words, and obviously enjoyed going out.
In the past, he said that when he was not yet in the office, he often followed Mr. Zhou around to observe the world. In the past year or so, he has always been very busy, and I am afraid that he has not even been to the outskirts of Yanjing.
It's no wonder that he is so happy, how can he not feel happy when he can stay away from his familiar environment, that is, away from the things that have been bothering him.
So is Jinghu himself. Concubine Xu's health can get better, she has already begun to yearn for Jiangnan, and by chance she learned that Ke Mingxu is actually going to Jiangnan at this time.
What a coincidence and fate. After a hundred years of repairing in the same boat, their fate turned out to be so deep, which made her infinitely happy.
Jinghu said: "Although Lord Xiao Ke said that the most prosperous place in Tianjin is not much different from Yanjing, I still want to eat the sugar fire that Lord Xiao Ke just said." β
"I have tasted many snacks so far away from Jiangnan, but I have never heard of snacks in this place very close to Yanjing. If only I could stay here for another day. β
Ke Mingxu said naturally: "The road is far away, and you have to look at the Tianxing Road, it is really not good to stay in one place for a long time." If the little county lord is interested, he can go to the place he wants to go when he returns home. β
He seemed to have forgotten that Jinghu and he were not actually on the same path. He went to Huai'an to celebrate his grandfather's birthday before the end of June, but Jinghu was wandering all the way, in fact, there was no time limit, so he could take his time.
However, Jinghu was still very happy to hear him say this, indicating that he subconsciously felt that she was with him, even though they were not in the same boat.
However, when it comes to the way homeβ
"Master Xiao Ke is going to Huai'an, so naturally he got off the boat in Huai'an and went to Xie Mansion by land. But I went to Jiahe and got off the boat in Hangzhou, which is much farther than Huai'an. β
"Xiao Ke's grandfather's birthday is at the end of June, so when do you plan to take Mr. Zhou to play in the cities south of the Yangtze River, will you come to Golden Harvest? Although Golden Harvest is not as big as Hangzhou and Suzhou, it actually has a lot of places to play. β
She even began to wonder if she could wait in the waters of Huai'an for a few days before going to Jiahe with them. Ke Mingxu went down to Jiangnan using the Xie family's boat, so wouldn't he have to rearrange the boat when he returned?
It's best to be with her.
Ke Mingxu didn't answer her directly, "Actually, I don't have much intention of playing, as for where I want to go, it still depends on the teacher's meaning." β
"If he is interested, I should accompany him. If he is not interested and wants to go back to Yanjing before the autumn season, then he will have to live up to the hospitality of the little county lord. β
If he said that he didn't want to go to Jiahe and only planned to go around Jiangsu, then Jinghu still had a way. Soft grinding and hard bubbles, coquettish and tricky, there is still a long way to go, she always has to find a way to grind him to change his mind.
But he pushed this matter on this old man, then she really had nothing to do, and what could she do.
I can only coax him well.
Jinghu looked at Mr. Zhou who was sleeping on the side thoughtfully, and said that when they met for the first time, he also said that he felt that he and Ke Mingxu were a couple.
Then at least he doesn't hate himself, and if he accepts a bribe from her, he may be willing to help her.
"What do you think, your eyes are going to glow." Ke Mingxu stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her eyes.
Jinghu turned his head and crashed into his gentle smile. I'm afraid there will be no one else in this world who attracts her like Ke Mingxu, no matter what he does, she feels good.
It is a gentle smile, or a slight frown, thinking about his own thoughts, walking on the endless green grass by the water.
Jinghu looked at him without speaking, Ke Mingxu lowered his head and poured another cup of tea for himself.
"Master Xiao Ke said let me drink less tea, why did I drink cup after cup, and I wasn't afraid that I wouldn't be able to sleep?"
He put the teacup down, "If you don't have a heart, even if you drink this pot of tea, it won't be difficult to sleep." If you have a lot of worries, even if you survive a few days and nights, when you lie down to rest, you will toss and turn. β
He paused, and suddenly looked at Jinghu seriously, "I seem to have something on my mind when I look at the little county lord, so I advise you to drink less tea." β
Jinghu didn't admit it, nor did he deny it, "In that case, now Master Xiao Ke has nothing to worry about." β
Ke Mingxu smiled, beckoned Liufeng in, and asked him to bring in a new pot of water. "Do you remember what I said to you when I was in Jianye?"
He didn't embarrass Jinghu, and asked her to guess which of the so many sentences they had said, and quickly followed: "Moving your heart and mind is not beneficial to others, and you can't quit it." β
"I couldn't do this when I was in Yanjing, but now it's rare to leave, but I feel a lot more relieved. After all, I can't solve those problems, and I'm not in the middle of it now, so I should be able to sleep well for a while. β
It's nothing more than a political matter, a family matter, but it's a pity that I can't help him with anything.
Jinghu cupped his face with both hands, "Since Lord Xiao Ke said that I have something on my mind, then you can guess what my mind is." β
He should have been able to guess her simple thoughts, and he had always guessed.
She has always liked to pull him to ask questions, but she just wanted to stay with him for a while, and her invitation had already revealed her heart.
If he doesn't know what she's thinking, he's playing dumb.
But she also has other things on her mind, and Ke Mingbi's matter has grown into a thorn in her heart. With such a long journey, she must have a chance to tell him.
Ke Mingxu didn't speak, Liufeng came back with a copper kettle, and smiled with Jinghu before going out. Jinghu grimaced at him.
"If it's something I can't solve, I'd better not guess."
After all, he had already answered her, and it was up to Mr. Zhou to decide these things. Jinghu didn't dare to ask him what he thought, weakness always came suddenly.
No one spoke, only the sound of water slowly boiling in the copper kettle on the stove. Occasionally, the breeze enters the house, bringing in some fishy smell unique to the water, and the candle flame on the silver jar beats.
