The attic is full of twilight (2)
I don't know when Jiang Tingxue's figure appeared at the door of the cave. Ling Xiao looked up and saw her with a sweet smile on her face, walking past the two budding plum trees that were waiting to be released.
"What are you doing sitting here? Strangely cold. Jiang Tingxue stood in front of Ling Xiao.
"Look at the fish, I think this fish is very interesting, on such a cold day, there are still fish swimming around here." Ling Xiao said his thoughts.
Jiang Tingxue admired: "You really have Yaxing." ”
"Let's go in and sit." Ling Xiao stood up.
"I feel weird." Jiang Tingxue pressed her index finger to her chin and made a curious look.
Ling Xiao was confused by her words and asked, "What's strange?" ”
"I always feel that you are very different from the average woman I have met." Jiang Tingxue said in her mouth, and followed Ling Xiao into the house.
Ling Xiao smiled after hearing this: "Actually, everyone is a unique existence. ”
"You know what? As far as I know, you're the first woman my cousin cares about! He won't look at any other woman, so you've got to have something to attract him. Jiang Tingxue said very surely.
Ling Xiao added tea to Jiang Tingxue and replied, "I happened to meet him when I was in trouble, and he took me in temporarily. This is a kind of charlatan morality, which has nothing to do with feelings. ”
Jiang Tingxue stared at Ling Xiao's eyes, and said seriously, "You just don't want to admit it." ”
Ling Xiao sighed slightly: "Maybe." ”
Jiang Tingxue's eyes lit up, and she thought of a new question to ask: "By the way, how did you meet him?" ”
"I was sold to the Qinglou, and then when I escaped, I strayed into a wooden house, and I met it there." Ling Xiao said briefly.
Jiang Tingxue thought for a moment and said, "The wooden house you said should be the one where my aunt lived when she was young, I know the wooden house, but I haven't been there." ”
Ling Xiao nodded: "Yes, that's it." ”
"That wooden house is where my aunt and my uncle met." A trace of envy flashed in Jiang Tingxue's eyes, envious of this beautiful story.
"That's right." Ling Xiaowei had never cared about any of this.
Jiang Tingxue said seriously: "This was thirty years ago, when my aunt had just reached the age of seventeen, and for some reason, she had a big quarrel with her grandfather, and then went to the Central Plains Country in anger. Knowing his aunt's stubborn temper, her father must not want to go home, so he built one for her in that place
The wooden house, temporarily settled, so that the grandfather could not find it. After that, he met his uncle who was collecting medicine in the forest, and the two fell in love at first sight, and a few years later, his uncle came to the house to propose, but his grandfather did not like to associate with the people in the rivers and lakes, so he immediately refused. But my aunt's temperament was too persistent, and in the end, with the help of my father,
Grandfather reluctantly agreed. This should be called a lover to become a family member. ”
"I didn't expect such an interesting thing to happen in this wooden house." Ling Xiao also felt that it was incredible, there was such a fate in the world.
"When I go to the Central Plains one day, I want to live there." Jiang Tingxue's eyes were full of expectation.
"You haven't been to the Central Plains?" Ling Xiao asked.
The expectation on Jiang Tingxue's face has not disappeared: "I have only been to Huizhou Lufu, and I have really never been to other places." ”
Ling Xiao looked at Jiang Tingxue's expectation and said, "If I hadn't been sold to Qinglou, maybe I wouldn't have gone to that place." ”
Jiang Tingxue took a sip of tea, and the expectation in her eyes disappeared, and she became jealous and hateful: "Who sold you to the Qinglou, it's so hateful!" ”
"I don't know." Ling Xiao could only answer this matter.
"What about your family?" Jiang Tingxue seemed to have endless questions.
Ling Xiao's eyelids lowered slightly: "I don't have a home." ”
Jiang Tingxue's face was a little more sympathetic, and her tone revealed regret: "So that's the case, no wonder you have a cold temperament, I think whoever meets your life experience will have such a temperament." ”
"Thank you for your understanding." Ling Xiao said.
Jiang Tingxue waved his hand: "What is there to thank for this." People should understand each other! ”
Ling Xiao felt more and more that the woman in front of him was innocent and free-spirited, intelligent and kind, not as good as Hui Zhi Lanxin, but better than Hui Zhi Lanxin.
Jiang Tingxue then asked, "Then what happened to you later?" Can you tell me about it? ”
Ling Xiao saw that Jiang Tingxue was very interested in such a thing, and couldn't bear to ruin her interest, so she started with Lu Jingxing leaving the wooden house, and talked about the events that had happened in the past few months in detail, including the reason why Feng Baiyue had arrested her. After these things were finished, Jiang Tingxue listened to it with relish
Early morning.
The weather is gloomy, and the rain will not fall. Winter days without sunlight always have a cold smell wafting around. The fire in the charcoal pot gradually weakened, and Jiang Tingxue picked up the charcoal tongs and slowly added some charcoal to it.
"I didn't expect you to experience so much in just a few months." Jiang Tingxue was a little unsatisfied.
Ling Xiao himself also felt incredible: "If I hadn't experienced these things myself, I wouldn't have thought of them anyway." ”
Jiang Tingxue still wanted to hear the story: "What about before I met my cousin?" ”
Ling Xiao admired Jiang Tingxue a little, Ling Xiao felt that Jiang Tingxue had the potential to be a detective, and said: "I lived in Beiyue before I was fifteen years old, but a high fever this spring caused me to lose my memory, and I don't remember anything that happened before. The only thing I know is that I don't know much after waking up
A few months later, I was sold to the Qinglou. ”
Jiang Tingxue seemed to understand something: "No wonder you don't have a home." ”
Ling Xiao said in a flat tone: "Is it the same?" ”
Jiang Tingxue suddenly smiled: "How did I think of it." Let's become sisters! ”
Ling Xiao was stunned by her words: "Huh? ”
Jiang Tingxue continued: "I have no brothers and sisters, and you can't find a home. Let's get married, so I have a sister, and you have a home, right? ”
Ling Xiao was not a little surprised when she heard what she said.
Jiang Tingxue was a little disappointed when she saw that Ling Xiao didn't speak: "Don't you want to?" Ling Xiao shook his head and said, "It's not that you don't want to, it's just that you don't even know where I come from, so it's a bit hasty to bow to me?" ”
Jiang Tingxue put her mind at ease: "What is this, how important can the origin be." ”
Jiang Tingxue stood up excitedly and pulled Ling Xiao out. Ling Xiao was a little dazed by her reaction and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”
Jiang Tingxue's steps became more brisk, and her voice was crisp and pleasant: "Go to my father and tell him about our sworn worship." ”
Ling Xiao was speechless, and let her pull her towards the main house.
"Father, do you want me to give you a daughter?" Before the people entered the house, Jiang Tingxue's voice came in first.
Jiang Qin'an sat on the seat, holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, and raised his head when he heard the sound, his face full of doubts: "How can you say this?" ”
Jiang Tingxue pulled Ling Xiao to sit down, and her tone was flattering: "I want to be a sister with Ling Xiao's sister, she has no home, you see how pitiful." And I also want to have a sister, it's boring to be alone. ”
"It's a good idea, but have you asked what Miss Ling means?" Jiang Qin thought about it.
Jiang Tingxue glanced at Jiang Qin: "You still need to say this, of course I asked, just wait for your words." ”
Jiang Qin was very refreshing: "That's good, it's just that taking in a daughter is also a big deal, and you have to choose a good day." Then the guests will be entertained. ”
Jiang Tingxue saw that he agreed, and was a little impatient: "Then go and prepare." I'll go and inform Uncle Jiang to prepare. ”
"Don't patronize and be happy, the matter of the money bank is still waiting for you." Jiang Qin deliberately changed his painting style.
Jiang Tingxue immediately lost her spirit after hearing this, and pouted: "Spoil the scenery." You always like to pour cold water on me when I'm happy. Ignore you. ”
As soon as Ling Xiao's soft mat was hot, he was dragged away by Jiang Tingxue again. Jiang Qin looked at such a daughter and shook his head with a smile.
Ling Xiao stopped on the wooden bridge: "Where are you going?" ”
"Accompany me to the money bank, when the money bank's affairs are done, I will take you around, how boring it is to be bored in the house." Jiang listened to Xue Zheng as he spoke, and saw Lu Jing walking over.
Jiang Tingxue smiled shyly: "Father is in the house, it's better for you to go and play against him." Xiao Xiao borrowed me today. ”
Lu Jingxing glanced at Ling Xiao, turned his head and said to Jiang Tingxue, "It's okay." But be safe. ”
Jiang Tingxue and Ling Xiao can become friends, and Lu Jingxing feels that it is very suitable. One is lively and cheerful, and the other is mature and steady, so that both of them can turn around a little, which is also one of the purposes for Lu Jingxing to bring Ling Xiao here.
"Let's go, let's go back to the house and get the cloak first." Ling Xiao was dragged by Jiang Tingxue to run away from the house, but seeing Jiang Tingxue so sincere, he followed Jiang Tingxue.
A red and a yellow brisk figure walking through the crowded streets, undoubtedly adding a lot of splendor to this cold winter.
"Look, it's here." Jiang Tingxue stood still on the side of the street, pointed to a shop opposite, and said.
Ling Xiao looked in the direction of her finger, and the words "Jiang's Qianzhuang" were written on the plaque.
The two walked through the street and walked inward. Ling Xiao already felt good just by looking outside, and now when he is in the store, he feels even better. The layout is neat and elegant, and the decoration is ornate and magnificent.
"Miss, you're finally here. There's a hard person to deal with inside, so go check it out. The shopkeeper looked embarrassed.
"I'll come when I go, Xiao Xiao, you go to the back room and wait for me first. Take my sister to the back room and I'll take a look. Jiang Tingxue said to Ling Xiao after saying it to the guy.
"When did Miss have an extra sister?" The guy looked puzzled.
"Sister-in-law. Don't grind around here. Jiang Tingxue's cloak was not solved, so he walked to the guest room, and the man led Ling Xiao to the back room.
"Miss, please wait here for a moment." The guy stood in the doorway and made a gesture of please.
Ling Xiao knew that he still had something to do, so he waved his hand: "You go and get busy." ”
As soon as Ling Xiao stayed there, half an hour had passed. Jiang Tingxue appeared at the door with a tired look, obviously really meeting a difficult person to deal with.
"Are you alright?" Ling Xiao asked with concern.
"It's fine. I couldn't figure it out, I was obviously not in business, but my father insisted on me doing this. Jiang Tingxue's face was depressed.
