Qing Dai saw Qi Zhen'er's expression, and probably understood more than half of it, Qi Zhen'er is not stupid, she has long seen it clearly, but she has been pretending to be stupid.

Qingdai sighed, "Zhen'er, in front of me, there is no need to hide it, what I said in it is true, I am true, then you are my good sister." ”

"I'm an orphan girl, and it's been my luck to have a friend with me, and I don't want you to be hurt again."

Qi Zhen'er looked at Qing Dai and lowered her head in embarrassment, "You have expressed some to me earlier, but I didn't say anything." ”

"I was thinking of staying with you, Miss, and I didn't plan to go with anyone."

Qing Dai looked around and said slowly: "What about you, what about you?" Do you know what you think in your own heart? ”

Qi Zhen'er heard this, hesitated for a moment, and her voice was slightly lowered, "I know that Sister Tao Tao likes Brother Duyue, and the two of them still have the hypocrisy of their lives, and they are childhood sweethearts......"

Qing Dai interrupted Qi Zhen'er's words angrily, "I'm asking about you, not them, so do you think that such a thing as feelings really exists?" ”

"Feelings are selfish, I still say this, I don't want you to be hurt in any way, you have to know how rare it is to go both ways, some things, you must think about it before making a decision."

When Qi Zhen'er heard this, she looked at Qingdai in a daze, "But ......"

Qing Dai waved her hand, frowned and said, "You don't have to talk to me again, I already understand, I have to do what I have thought of, it's a big deal, and I'll finish it for you later." ”

Qi Zhen'er looked at Qing Dai gratefully, and at this moment, a not shallow footstep came, and he slowly walked out of the bushes behind.

Qing Dai and Qi Zhen'er both turned around, and happened to see Du Qingqing who was smiling.

"Madam, Miss Zhen'er, I'm really sorry today, I don't speak well, I'm here to make amends to you."

Qing Dai had a cold face, looked at Du Qingqing quietly, and said: "Miss Qingqing, I know that you are a good girl who thinks about everything for her brother, but there are some things that we can control at will. ”

She paused, slowly raised her eyes, and looked directly into Du Qingqing's eyes, "Also, the person you want to apologize to is not me." ”

Du Qingqing's smile was embarrassed on her face, and she seemed to look at Qi Zhen'er with extreme reluctance, "Miss Qi, oh, I heard my brother say that your surname is Qi?" Today's thing is that I am not right, and I hope that Miss Qi Haihan. ”

Qing Dai chuckled, "Then I'll do it for Qi Zhen'er Haihan." ”

Speaking of this, Qing Dai directly took Qi Zhen'er's hand, "Zhen'er, let's go." ”

Xu Duheng hasn't noticed these undercurrents surging between them, but he has been extremely busy these days, and when he can see him, in addition to the study, it is when he eats and sleeps.

Qing Dai couldn't help but complain: "What have you been doing lately?" ”

Xu Duheng reached out and habitually pinched her cheek, "Some things are more urgent." ”

Qing Dai frowned slightly, "It can't be that something happened to the previous dynasty, right?" ”

Xu Duheng sighed, "What are you doing with your little face?" It's okay, you can play in peace. ”

Qingdai nodded hesitantly.

At night, it was already raining outside, and it even felt a little more intense.

"Why does it smell so bad outside?"

Xu Duheng glanced out the window and explained simply: "This was originally a waste ore vein, and iron and stone were produced, so the red soil here will be mixed with some iron smell. ”

Qing Dai frowned and nodded, "It's good that this is not a rainy place, otherwise it would be very difficult." ”

Xu Duheng also smelled the breath outside and frowned a little uncomfortably, "It's true that it rarely rains in Qianfeng Valley, but the climate is extremely moderate, and it is indeed rare to have such a heavy rain." ”

As the two of them breathed slowly, the sound of rain outside the window stopped.

The next day the rain was clear, and it seemed as if the rain was passing by, and the ground was about to be dried.

But the faint fishy smell in the air can still be clearly smelled, and even Tao Tao covered her nose when she went out.

"It rained so hard yesterday, I guess I don't want to think about admiring the moon today."

Qing Dai paused, "Moon-watching? ”

Tao Tao said: "I'll just say that, madam, you're up, it's not fifteen today, so thinking about the rain, I guess I can't see the moon on my wrist." ”

Qing Dai nodded slowly, and glanced left and right, "Why didn't you see Qi Zhen'er?" ”

Tao Tao thought for a while and said: "I didn't see it when I got up in the morning, and Du Yue wasn't there, and it is estimated that the two of them didn't know where to go crazy." ”

Qing Dai chuckled and shook her head, "Then accompany me to the town today to buy some things." ”

Tao Tao glanced at Qingdai and said, "What, Childe is not going?" ”

Qing Dai shook her head, "He doesn't know what he's been busy with lately, and he always can't see anyone." ”

Tao Tao didn't think much about it, just nodded.

Because it had just rained, it would be a little difficult for the carriage to walk on the road, and the dull smell in the air was a little uncomfortable from the sun.

Qing Dai pulled the car window, and her eyes were dazzled by the sun.

She quietly looked at the maple forest not far away, the soil in it was also washed by the rain, and there were pools of water.

Tao Tao also frowned and looked over, "It's really beautiful here, but the red soil is really a little crazy to look at." ”

Qing Dai glanced at Tao Tao, "Why did you suddenly say that?" ”

Tao Tao pursed the corners of her mouth, stretched out her hand and pointed towards the maple forest, "Those puddles are still a little dark red, like a pool of blood. ”

If Tao Tao didn't say it, Qing Dai really didn't think of this, because it automatically ignored the color here, but if you just stare at that place, don't compare it to the others, it does look like Tao Tao said.

Qing Dai suddenly stopped her gaze, as if she thought of something, and suddenly shouted: "Stop!" ”

The carriage slowly stopped aside, and Tao Tao helped Qingdai through the potholed ground and came to the maple forest on the side.

Qing Dai couldn't help but find a wooden stick from the side and gently stirred it in those puddles.

She casually asked, "You said it rarely rains here?" ”

Tao Tao nodded, "Indeed, the water and soil here in Anping Town are good, and it is estimated that there will be one or two rains a year." ”

Qing Dai frowned, looking at the dark brown substance floating in the muddy water, like precipitated cotton wool, not like soil.

"Taotao, have you ever seen the soil fade?"

Tao Tao paused and frowned, "No, but these things are indeed uncertain." ”

Qingdai couldn't help but reach out and grab a handful of mud, and Tao Tao immediately said, "Madam, what are you doing, how dirty it is!" ”
