Chapter 195: Quietly

The Shili Pavilion in the suburbs, this is a place that Xiao Zheng has not been to for a long time, and a heavy snowfall a few days ago has decorated this place anew. The sun is shining brightly on the snow that has not yet completely melted. The stone steps of the mountain are dappled with traces of snow, the trees on both sides are shimmering with pure white flowers, the wind blows through the branches, swaying and swaying the snow foam, and the frightened birds flutter their wings twice and fly resolutely into the sky.

There was a damp and cold breath in the air, the smell of fragrance was permeated between the mountain roads, and looking at the antique pavilion that seemed to be still overhead, Xiao Zheng also had a good taste for a leisurely stroll.

The snow has completely melted at the top of the pavilion where it is facing the sun, and there is still an inch of snow in the sunny area. This blue and white color also adds a bit of beauty to the pavilion. Maybe it's because the age has really arrived, or maybe it's because he hasn't moved around since the beginning of winter, Xiao Zheng feels that it really took a lot of effort to walk up to this pavilion. And what he didn't know was that it was Zhong Shiwei, who was much fatter than him, who was more strenuous than him.

After returning to the capital, Xiao Zheng had a special fate with these ten miles pavilion three times in total. The first time was when Du Yuexian asked him to come, the second time was to come specifically to connect with Mama Qin in the palace, and the third time, that is, the time in front of him, of course, it was not Xiao Zheng who took the initiative to come, but also accepted the appointment of others.

Of course, this person is none other than Zhong Shiwei, who Xiao Zheng was once full of jealousy.

The world really plays a big joke with people. Recalling that year, Zhong Shiwei used despicable and obscene means to drive Xiao Zheng away from the capital, and he did not hesitate to look for Xiao Zheng for several years in order to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and later, perhaps thinking that Xiao Zheng could not make a comeback, or perhaps he also thought that he was capable enough to stop Xiao Zheng's comeback, Zhong Shiwei stopped looking. It's a pity that many things are not transferred by personal will, just when he thought that everything was settled, Xiao Zheng, who had disappeared for more than ten years, quietly returned to the capital. Just when Zhong Shiwei was full of anxiety and even had trouble sleeping, he learned that Xiao Zheng did not return to his hometown in fine clothes, but just rented an inconspicuous small house in an inconspicuous place in the capital and opened an inconspicuous small business. Originally, he thought that there was nowhere to find when he stepped on the iron shoes, and he could pinch Xiao Zheng to death with a slight movement of his fingers, but Xiao Zheng bought the mansion opposite Linglong Pavilion with lightning speed! I still remember the grand scene when Mo looked back and reopened, there were all the characters in the capital, not only that, but there were also many wealthy nobles vying for it! For a while, Zhong Shiwei was frightened, and what made him even more unacceptable was that when he begged people everywhere to stumble on Xiao Zheng, he found that the name Xiao Zheng seemed to have been forged by an iron wall, and no one could afford to provoke it!

This world is really too big, this world is really too small, the little Zhong Shiwei thinks that they will never see each other again in this life, but they reunite by such a coincidence! When all attempts hit the nail in a hard or soft way, Zhong Shiwei began to show weakness. Today, of course, is not the first time, if Xiao Zheng is willing to give him a chance, I believe this will not be the last. But are there really so many opportunities in life? Looking at Zhong Shiwei's back, Xiao Zheng shook his head with a wry smile.

More than ten years are like a day, time flies by a flick of a finger, thinking about the desolate time when I left the capital, leaving behind my sister and the baby in swaddling, the pain in my heart still can't be calmed.

Life is like a dream, I have to say, dreams are also like life. The young man of the year has now changed to the color of old age, and the blue hair has added white frost.

"Senior brother." Hearing Xiao Zheng's footsteps, Zhong Shiwei hurriedly said hello. Senior brother, this is still the title he uses to set up closely, but in Xiao Zheng's heart, this title has been buried with their relationship more than ten years ago.

Xiao Zheng didn't answer, he just looked at Zhong Shiwei coldly, sometimes, meeting does not necessarily mean forgiveness or understanding, it is more likely to be the final choice.

"I know you're not going to forgive me...... Still, I want to call you that. I think back then, you and I apprenticed to the same teacher, studied medicine together, and got along day and night, as if it was yesterday. Now that I think about it...... It's been so long. Time really waits for no one...... Wait for no ......" Zhong Shiwei smiled awkwardly, his memories of the past did not cause any resonance with Xiao Zheng.

"In your opinion, time is in a hurry, but I, Xiao Zheng, spend every day like a year."

"Yes, my brother is right, I think you were like a fish in water in the capital back then, and your career was also booming. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been displaced for so many years...... After so many years, you have indeed suffered while adrift...... If it weren't for me...... But later, I tried to explain to my junior brother, but for so many years, I have not been able to do so. Zhong Shiwei let out a long sigh.

"Thank you for not being able to do so, I can still live until now, otherwise, the only thing that can appear in front of you today may be my grave." Xiao Zheng said.

"I know that nothing I say now will make up for the damage I have done to you in the past. But whether you believe it or not, my heart has been sad for so many years. All my confessions to you before came out of my heart. If my brother doesn't forgive me, I won't forgive myself. I thought about it, and in order to make up for the damage I caused to my junior brother, I planned to ...... I plan to return the Linglong Pavilion to my junior brother. Zhong Shiwei looked at Xiao Zheng, and the slightly dodging eyes made Xiao Zheng feel an unknown disgust in his heart.

Xiao Zheng is not surprised by such an answer. Since the palace has reduced the worship of Linglong Pavilion, for Zhong Shiwei, who completely relies on the palace for a living, this is undoubtedly half of his life, plus now Mo Hui's rouge has a good reputation in the palace, and it has a tendency to soar, according to the current momentum, next year, Mo Huitou is likely to completely win the imperial offering of the palace, and the Linglong Pavilion at that time is even considered to exist in name only.

What's more, for so many years, Zhong Shiwei has a low eye, and has never put the supply and demand of the people in the capital in his eyes, and the situation that his Linglong Pavilion items are hard to find has already lost all his popularity in the capital, and now, it is impossible to lower his head and beg for other people's alms.

"After so many years, you really haven't changed your nature. That Linglong Pavilion was originally founded by me Xiao Zheng, and now it has been ruined by your ruined reputation, give me back such a notorious signboard? You're not wrong. Xiao Zheng's words were sharp.

"Senior brother, you are wrong, I didn't have any calculations, if I insist on saying yes, it is that I want to change my past, redeem for the wrongs I have done, and compensate for the injuries I have hurt." Zhong Shiwei sighed, but Xiao Zheng smiled coldly.

"You really don't change your selfish nature at any time. At the beginning, you pretended to be guilty of asking me to go to Mo Huitou and staged such a drama, which can be described as a lot of trouble in the capital, provoking the sympathy of some people who originally sneered at you, and even some people said that you are a prodigal son and do not change your money, and I am advised to be forgiving and forgiving! But if I'm not mistaken, you're just releasing ***, and it's just to buy time for yourself to fog up. Xiao Zheng's expression was stern, for the person in front of him, how much he believed in the past, and how much he knew now.

"Senior brother, you are wrong, I didn't put anything ***. I told the truth in every word, and if there was half a lie, I would rather the sky thunder! Zhong Shiwei raised his finger and cursed and swore.

"Thunder and thunder? If the curse oath had worked so well, you would have been struck by lightning more than ten years ago! Zhong Shiwei, don't be pitiful here, although I, Xiao Zheng, am naturally stupid, I will not be deceived by you again and again. It has been more than ten years since you occupied the magpie's nest and taken away everything from me, and you have been majestic in all directions, and you are so uncomfortable with fame and fortune. If you can still compete with me now, I also admire you as a man, but you have always hid in the dark like a mouse and refused to see anyone! More than ten years have passed, Zhong Shiwei, can you tell me what you have changed? Xiao Zheng reprimanded loudly.

"You...... Is that what you see me? I'm ...... from the bottom of my heart now."

"You have long since lost your heart with me, let alone your heart. I was deceived by your pitiful appearance back then, so I ended up in the future! More than ten years have passed, and you Zhong Shiwei have not changed their true colors back then, but I, Xiao Zheng, am definitely not the person I was back then! Don't put any more delays on me. Before you procrastinated time, in fact, you paved the way for yourself to get through the relationship, but you didn't think about it, your foreshadowing has not been done, your father-in-law Lao Taishan will travel westward with a crane, and now all you have can be regarded as a desperate weight lost. If you don't succeed in a plan, you will come to bargain with me again, Zhong Shiwei, your life has passed the year of confusion, don't you feel ashamed of what you have done? ”

"Shame?" Zhong Shiwei laughed miserably, "Just like you said, junior brother, I'm already so unbearable, do you still think I have a face?" Zhong Shiwei suddenly and completely gave up the last struggle, which made Xiao Zheng a little unexpected.

"Do you think it's really easy for me to be in the capital for more than ten years? I'm not like you, you have to be talented, you have to be accomplished. When I was studying medicine from the master, you were better than me in everything, and you could get the master's praise for everything. And me? No matter how hard you try, you can't get the favor of the master. After five years of studying medicine, I suffered five years of humiliation, and these are the things that are high up, you know? Later, I defected to you and came to the capital, at first I didn't feel anything, and I also believed that even if you are inferior in medical skills, there are always things that are better than you. I don't know why, I Zhong Shiwei seems to have offended some god, no matter what I do, no matter how hard I work and try, the ending will always be so unsatisfactory. Later, even if you left the capital, I didn't have any sense of accomplishment, and I was always trembling for so many years. Everyone in the capital knows that I, Zhong Shiwei, am a person who is afraid of guilt, and they gave me a little thin face in front of the stage is nothing more than looking at my father-in-law's face, when did I Zhong Shiwei have my own dignity? ”
