Chapter 045: Sweetheart
In the city of Leizhou, there is a lot of people.
Xie Xuan stood there, looking up at the sky. The golden sunlight fell on his shoulders, giving off a crisp and loose fragrance, and he heard someone talking about the Tang family.
A tragedy, a fire.
The huge Tang family failed to leave a single living mouth.
It's pathetic.
There were constant sighs from the crowd.
Xie Xuan thought of his sister and brother in the Soul Division, and somehow, he just wanted to sigh.
The ruins of the Tang family in front of him were scorched black.
People who are like morning dew can't resist a trace of fire at all.
He withdrew his gaze and turned to the south.
Along the way, there are always people who can't help but look at him secretly. A young and handsome man, even if he just walks on the road ordinarily, is as dazzling as a star and shining brightly.
But those who look at him, once they take their eyes back, can no longer remember his face.
They only remember that it seemed to be a very handsome young man, and they can't remember what it was like to be handsome.
How tall he is, his face is wide and narrow, whether he is sword eyebrows and starry eyes or handsome and gentle, he is completely vague and has no clue.
If you think desperately, if you think too much, even that handsome feeling becomes in a trance.
On the long street, from time to time, people stopped and turned to look back.
But what exactly do you want to see?
Youth? What youth......
Soon, they forgot about Xie Xuan.
There are no gods in the world.
The people walking on the long street would never have thought that the gods had already passed by them.
The midday sun shines on the glazed tiles.
Xie Xuan walked through the long street and came to a three-entry house.
The exterior of the house looks almost exactly the same as that of the Watari Division. The door of the twilight was closed, like a mussel shell that could not pry its mouth open.
He didn't come forward to knock on the door, nor did he try to open it, but just stood quietly in the doorway, staring at the stone lion in front of the door.
It's ridiculous to ward off evil spirits.
Suddenly, the door opened, and two little maids with sad faces came out of it.
When one of them saw him, he immediately shouted: "Xie, Xie Gongzi!" ”
Hearing this, the other frowned, pulled her sleeve, and asked in a low voice, "Who is this?" ”
The little maid who spoke first ignored her, and only hurriedly made way out and asked Xie Xuan to go inside: "Miss went to the back garden early in the morning, saying that she wanted to catch two fish and come back to cook, but she didn't want the fish to take the bait, she is still in the garden, and it is useless to eat." ”
The little maid spoke loudly, and the sadness on her face lightened.
Xie Xuan bowed his head and raised his foot to step over the threshold and go inside.
The door was closed again.
The tall little maid let out a long sigh of relief.
The shorter one, with a melon seed face, frowned tightly at the moment: "What Gongzi Xie?" Who is he? Why did you just let a man in the door? Could it be that he is the young master of the mansion? But our young lady, isn't her surname Zhong? ”
The little girl with a melon seed face was confused, retreated to the bottom of the steps, and looked up at the door plaque.
The two words Zhongfu are big and conspicuous.
She asked a barrage of questions.
The tall little maid didn't say much, but said, "You are new here, I don't know, that Gongzi Xie is our young lady's sweetheart." ”
"Huh?" The melon seed face was taken aback, "Sweetheart? I thought she didn't like men! ”
"What do you say, Miss doesn't like men, do you like you?" As they spoke, the two men walked into the distance, arm in arm.
Melon seed face whispered: "Miss doesn't go out of the door, and there is a sweetheart...... she still didn't believe it, "Speaking of which, Miss is eighteen years old, right?" ”
The tall maid nodded: "When I went to the mansion in the new year, I heard my sister in front of me say that the young lady had only passed her seventeenth birthday, and now a year has passed, shouldn't she be eighteen years old?" ”
Guazi showed a puzzled look on her face: "You say, since the young lady is eighteen years old and has a ready-made sweetheart, why don't you get married?" ”
"If you change your home, maybe you can say that it is because your parents don't agree, but isn't there no master and wife in our house? Miss is alone, lonely, her parents are gone, and it's obviously a good thing to start a family early. ”
She stared at the tall maid next to her: "Could it be ...... Is that Mr. Xie dislike our young lady? ”
"I don't like it, why did he come to the door to find the young lady?"
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it didn't make sense.
The tall maid hesitated and said in a low voice, "In my opinion, it seems that the young lady did not show her heart to him. ”
Although their young lady was born with an apricot face and peach cheeks, she looked delicate, but she had a calm temperament, not like a person who would easily reveal her thoughts with others.
The two maids looked at each other and sighed.
In the house, Xie Xuan was already familiar with the way to the back garden.
Sitting on the edge of the pool, the young girl with a fishing rod heard the footsteps and turned her head to look: "Hey, why did you come so early today?" ”
Xie Xuan stood under the tree, leaned his back against the trunk, and said lazily, "It's just nothing." ”
Leizhou, which does not rain, has dazzling sunshine.
He raised his hand to block the light, turned his face sideways and asked, "What about the fish?" Caught fishing? ”
Zhong Miao shook the fishing rod in his hand and sighed: "Su Ri has been fed too much, and after eating and drinking enough, where are there any fish willing to take the bait." ”
Xie Xuan came out of the shade of the tree and sat down on the stone by the pool.
The fat fish in the water are swimming slowly, and there is really no intention of biting the bait.
He glanced at it twice and withdrew his gaze: "Fat into such a fish, it is not very tasty to think about." Since you refuse to take the bait, it is better to let someone use a net to fish. ”
It swims so slowly, as if it was born to have people catch it with a net.
But when Zhong Miao heard this, he just lifted the fishing rod, threw it back, shook his head and said, "Fishing is fishing, it's not really to eat it." ”
"Just pass the time."
The girl's crisp and sweet voice was a little lighter.
Xie Xuan sat on the edge of the pool, uncomfortable from the sun.
The water is sparkling.
Finally, a large fish with red spots on its head bit the bait hard.
Zhong Miao stood up abruptly and pulled the fishing line up, but he was only halfway there, and with a light hand, the fish ran away.
She looked at the water fixedly, and there was no disappointment on her face.
After sitting back down, she turned to Xie Xuan's side and suddenly asked, "Xie Xuan, how many years have it been since you and I first met?" ”
Xie Xuan closed his eyes.
"Forty-seven years."
