Chapter 46: How many twists and turns love has
Gu Li walked out of the Immortal Grass Hall and hurried home.
At the door, Yan Qing was playing with Ermao, the son of sister-in-law Chang next door, and the children's laughter kept getting into her ears.
Yan Qing saw that she was back, so he stopped playing with Ermao, stood at the door and waited for her to come, chuckling lightly.
He was slender, dressed in white, and stood there quietly, like a beautiful painting.
Gu Li walked over to him, and heard him whisper, "The meal has been prepared a long time ago, and I have been waiting for you to come back." ”
Gu Li smiled at him, his heart was leisurely, and he suddenly felt a sense of warmth.
In the days when he was away, she felt unaccustomed to what she ate and did, and she always felt empty in her heart, as if someone had stripped a corner out of thin air. It wasn't until he came back that her heart was satisfied again. It seems that as long as he is there, the years will be quiet.
The two of them laughed and entered the house, and a sumptuous and tempting dinner was placed on the table.
The next day, Gu Li didn't need to go to the Immortal Grass Hall, and slept until three poles in the morning. After breakfast, she and Yan Qing took a book and sat on the bluestone platform in the courtyard.
The leafy foliage of the plane trees cast a shade over them, and occasionally a beam or two of light leaked through the cracks in the leaves, and mischievously jumped on their clothes and hair.
Gu Li leaned her back against the trunk of the sycamore tree, holding a book in one hand and an apple in the other, eating and reading at the same time.
What she is reading today is not a medical book, but a book of words, which is written about the romance of talented and beautiful people. Although the story is a bit old-fashioned, the plot twists and turns are really attractive.
Gu Li couldn't help but be fascinated, and when she saw the wonderful, she didn't even eat the apple in her hand, put it on the bluestone platform on her side, and watched it intently.
When she was emotional, Gu Li couldn't help but sigh: "Why do all beautiful love always have to go through twists and turns to be realized?" ”
Yan Qing didn't take his eyes off the book in his hand, and when he heard her sigh like this, he replied to her words: "It must be because one party asks too much and the other party can't give." ”
Isn't the essence of love a transaction and a seeking? If one of them asks for too much, it will inevitably go through twists and turns.
After he said this, his slender fingers picked up the half of the apple that had just been put down by Gu Li and took a bite gracefully.
Gu Li turned her eyes to look at him suddenly, not surprised that he had eaten the leftover apples she ate, but surprised that he would have such an argument.
At first glance, it does sound novel, and it does seem to make some sense. But if you think about it carefully, you can't help but feel the sadness in it.
The reason why love has twists and turns is because in love, some people ask too much. If both parties can rationally measure each other's feelings, then they will definitely be able to avoid twists and turns. It's just that love is never rational, so how can it be smooth sailing?
Thinking like this, Gu Li suddenly felt a sense of sadness and helplessness in her heart, and couldn't help but sigh.
Yan Qing blinked his eyes and looked at her with an inquiring gaze.
Gu Li didn't reply, only smiled at him, and continued to read the story in his hand.
Yan Qing also continued to read, he read a book of poetry and miscellaneous songs, which he had not read before. More than 300 years have passed, and the world seems to have abandoned the simplicity and elegance in favor of writing such rich lyrics and songs.
Gu Li finished reading the story in his hand, leaned on the plane tree, and recalled the story he had just finished reading for a long time.
A crisp birdsong pierced through the leaves, interrupting her musings.
She glanced over to him and saw that he was still reading, his long butterfly-like eyelashes gently closing regularly, cutting a hazy light and shadow at the corners of his eyes, as if teasing her heart.
She suddenly asked, "Is there anyone else in your family?" ”
At this moment, she suddenly wanted to know about him, wanted to know his past.
Asked by her, Yan Qing put down the book, and a smile spread on his lips: "There is no one else except me." ”
Gu Li frowned slightly, this was really unexpected by her.
She always thought that he still had a family alive, and that his family should still be very rich and pampered with him. Otherwise, how can he let him have a good life and send his love to the mountains and rivers alone?
It turned out that she, like him, had no relatives and was alone.
Gu Li suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
She had just asked him about the situation at home, and she also wanted to know when he would leave. If someone in the family is concerned, he must not be away for a long time.
But he said that there was no one in his house, just like her.
"Overnight, my parents were all gone, and even my life was picked up." Gu Li had a melancholy and sad smile on her lips. When I recall the past, I can't help but feel sad in my heart.
If she hadn't changed her soul, if she was still the same Gu Xianglan as before, then what would be the situation now?
Yan Qing knew her true identity, and she was not afraid of being exposed in front of him, so she dared to say so.
"Where do you live in Vietnam?" Gu Li put on a more relaxed smile, and also changed to a lighter question, looking at him and asking.
However, she, a native of Yueguo, has never been to Yueguo, and she is afraid that if he says a place, she may not be able to know where it is.
Yan Qing had a light smile on his lips, and he was silent for a moment, and said: "My old residence is not in Yueguo. ”
"Huh?" Gu Li was surprised.
Isn't he from Vietnam? Where is the old residence in the country?
Yan Qing looked at her with a smile: "My mother is from Yueguo, so I was born in Yueguo, and I spent thirteen years with her in Wenjun Mountain. After that, he returned to the country of Qi. ”
"So you're from Qi?" Gu Li asked after his words.
Yan Qing nodded.
Gu Li understood.
"Then how did your parents pass away?" Gu Li was curious and asked again.
But this time, Yan Qing didn't reply.
His expression was leisurely, his handsome face was full of elegant smiles, and he picked up the book again and read it.
Gu Li didn't wait for his reply, so she didn't ask anymore.
She looked up at the dense green sycamore leaves in a daze, her thoughts were mixed, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
After a few moments, sleepiness struck, and she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Yan Qing was reading a book when he suddenly felt a sinking on his shoulders.
He turned his eyes and lowered his eyes, and saw that her clear eyes were closed, and her head was resting on his shoulder, sleeping just right.
Yan Qing didn't wake her up, but looked at her sleeping face, smiled slightly, and changed her position again, so that she could sleep more comfortably.
He knew her heart, and he knew that her heart was always fluttering, so he had just asked him these questions.
As for his stay or not, it is not easy to say now.
Gu Li rested on his shoulder and fell asleep quietly. Occasionally, a breeze blew through his soft hair and brushed her cheeks.
It's tickling, so that even in her dreams, her heart is throbbing quietly.
