Chapter 10: Begging for Forgiveness

Tonight's garden is quiet, only the full moon in the sky with sleepy eyes, only the evening breeze blowing, and the falling flowers are colorful.

"Qingrou, will you come tonight?" My heart went up and down, and I was worried: "What if she ignores me again? What if she never wants to see me again?"

It was late in the night, and the dew was getting thicker, and it soaked the skirt of my clothes! I was disappointed, and knew that she would not come tonight, so I had to go back to the house in a huff.

It was dark in the room, I didn't light a candle, and I suddenly felt that the room was so deserted—the bed was cold, the quilt was cold, and my heart was cold.

The daytime business also becomes annoying - if you want a level 5 wind and rain, okay, I'll give you a storm, if you want the wind and the waves to be calm, I'll give you a tornado... Anyway, I'm in a bad mood, and they don't want to follow suit.

I managed to make it into the evening, and I came to the garden with a glimmer of hope. I went to her real body, the herb, and expressed my repentance: "Sister Xiang, forgive me, you come out to see me, okay?" Only the cold moon glanced at its cold eyes, only the cold wind blew mercilessly on me, and my clothes fluttered.

On the third night, I was still waiting, usually, a pink butterfly came through the flowers, but now, the flowers fell and the wind was cold, and the silver bells were like pearls, but now, the cold moon and silver veils were silent. The more I thought about it, the more sad I became, and I couldn't help but burst into tears: "Sister Xiang, where are you?

When the day came, I felt groggy in my head, barely finishing my business, and I went back to my room, and lay myself on the bed, never to think about it again—I was sick.

The old butler came to visit me, found out about the situation, and called in a doctor. After the doctor diagnosed, he said to the old housekeeper: "Shenjun is occasionally feeling cold, it is not in the way, I have already prescribed a prescription, you can take the medicine according to the prescription." After saying that, he left, and the old butler sent him out of the palace.

I thought it was a minor illness, but my condition became more and more critical, I didn't eat or drink, and I was getting thinner and thinner.

The old butler was so anxious about this that he hurriedly called a doctor, and after his diagnosis, he was also confused, and did not understand why I had been ill for a long time. Finally, the old butler shook his head at me, which meant, "Resign yourself to fate." ”

In the evening, they still prepared hot rice and soup and went out. I didn't have the strength to eat it, but I struggled to get up from my bed and looked out of the half-open window into the garden, and maybe, before I died, I wanted to see her again.

Suddenly, the door opened, and a woman in pink walked in—it was Qingrou!

My heart beat so fast that I had to immediately put my hands over my chest, afraid it would jump out of control.

Qingrou came to my bedside, reached out and stroked my face and said, "Brother stupid, you have lost weight." She looked a little haggard, but she was still beautiful.

I grabbed her hand and said in a trembling voice, "Sister Xiang, are you finally willing to see me?

She broke free of my hand, turned back to the table, picked up the soup bowl and came to me again and said to me, "Silly brother, you can eat something, if you die, who will protect me?" She looked at me again: "Who is bullying me again?" I couldn't help but blush, but I opened my mouth obediently.

She sat down on the edge of the bed and scooped a spoonful of soup into my mouth.

After a bowl of hot soup, I had a little strength and energy.

Qingrou put the empty bowl back on the table and sat down beside me.

I hugged her and whispered to her, "Sister Xiang, are you willing to forgive me? ”

Qingrou leaned her head against my chest and said softly, "Brother Silly, you saved my life, you can do whatever you want." "I couldn't help but feel ashamed and happy in my heart.

Since Qingrou's careful care, my illness has miraculously improved. But she still doesn't want to see anyone else but me, so outsiders don't know about her existence.

A month has passed, my body has fully recovered, and I can go on a date with Qingye in the garden again, I am really happy!

It was another moonlit night, and Qingrou and I were strolling through the garden, which was the first time I saw her since I recovered from my illness.

"Sister Xiang, I'm sorry, last time I really... "I really can't talk about it.

She immediately stretched out her finger to hold my mouth, blushed and said, "Silly brother, I have forgiven you, anyway, I will be your person sooner or later." ”

I reached into my arms and took out a jasper hairpin, which was the one that Qingrou had left that night.

"Sister Xiang, this is your night... Give it back to you. I said with a red face.

Qingrou's face turned even redder, like a spring flower: "Brother Silly, if you like it, I'll give it to you." ”

"This... I hesitated, not understanding what she meant.

"Okay, don't forget it, give it to me. Qingrou suddenly said angrily, reaching out to grab the jade hairpin.

"Oh well. "I immediately put the jade hairpin into my arms" If I leave the Fengshen Palace one day and see this jade hairpin, it will be like seeing Xiangmei you. ”

"Why, silly brother, are you going to get out of here?" she looked up at me with her sweet cheeks.

"Of course not, how could I be willing to leave you?" I said. Qingrou happily snuggled her head against my chest and never spoke again.

The next day, a herald rode a heavenly horse to the Fengshen Palace and passed down a divine decree of Renjun.

I opened the palace gate, led the crowd to greet me, and knelt on the ground to receive the order.

The herald opened the divine decree and preached loudly: "The wind god received the decree - there are demons in Yuluo Mountain in the lower realm today, and they have repeatedly injured people's lives. And the demon power is high, and the special wind god is in the lower realm to eliminate the demon, and he will leave within three days, and there must be no mistake!

This is the first time I have received a divine decree, and when I returned to the palace, I couldn't help but be worried at the thought of being separated from Qingrou.

In the evening, I went to the garden to discuss the matter with Qingrou, and when she heard it, she was really unhappy.

I had no choice but to comfort her and say, "Even if the demon is strong, it will be a few days at the least, or a month at most, and I will definitely return from the demon, and then we can be together again." ”

Qingrou said sadly: "How can the time of the human world compare to the heavenly realm? I'm afraid that you will forget the person who cares about you by then and go to live happily alone. ”

"No, no... "I really can't find anything else to say about it.

Qingrou suddenly raised her beautiful eyes, as if she remembered something: "Brother Silly, you once said that you would take me back to my hometown if you have the chance, I don't know if it counts?"

"This... I was momentarily speechless, but I remembered that I had said so. I can't help but feel a little remorseful in my heart - a man's promise to a woman must be cautious.

I then stopped her and said, "Sister Xiang, I am here to get rid of the demon, it is extremely dangerous, I won't let you go, it's for your good." ”

But Qingrou said stubbornly: "What monster? If you are not afraid, I will not be afraid!"

I thought about it for a long time, and came up with another reason: "Sister Xiang, this is a long way to go to the world, I am afraid it will be inconvenient for me to take you with you in a windmill." ”

She smiled, "That's it." As he spoke, he put two jade fingers in his mouth and whistled!

Suddenly, something flew in the distant sky, flapped a pair of big wings, and landed in front of Qingrou, and I fixed my eyes - it was a white unicorn!
