Lin Jiamin served them meals separately, and when he handed it to Qi Yunqing, his gaze stayed on his face for a few seconds.

He didn't seem to notice, even all his eyes were on the woman next to him.

That kind of tenderness from the inside out, she has never gotten.

Thinking of this, her eyes were a little sour, and then she sat down silently.

……

Half an hour later, the moonlight was thicker, and the crickets in the courtyard were intermittently "singing".

Qi Yunqing wiped his slightly damp hair and walked into the main room, closed the door and turned around, only to see Su Jin sitting on a stool staring at him.

The sharp light of his eyes seemed to hit the bottom of his heart.

However, his expression did not change for half a minute, and he was a little warmer than usual, "It's cold at night, why don't you stay in bed?" ”

Walked over and shook her hand, slightly cool, slightly cool.

Then he took one of his coats, put them on for her, and instructed, "Remember to put on a coat when it's cold." ”

Facing the enlarged handsome face in front of him, Su Jin withdrew too small, reached out to take his dry handkerchief, and after he sat down, gently wiped it for him.

She asked casually, "Came back from walking?" ”

"Well, the donkey cart broke down halfway through." Qi Yunqing's eyes were lowered, and there was no trace of waves in his voice.

"What did you do today?"

"I went to the private school to ask my husband about my studies."

Qi Yunqing smiled, then took the handkerchief in her hand, threw it on the table, and said, "Lady, it's late at night." ”

Suddenly picked Su Jin up and walked to the bed.

Su Jin let out a defenseless low snort, and the thoughts in her mind suddenly ran away.

After a few moments, the curtain was lowered, blocking the view from the outside, but two dark shadows embracing each other could be faintly seen on the curtain.

……

The next day, the hour had passed, and the sun was shining through the house.

Su Jin woke up slowly, his vision gradually changed from hazy to clear, and there was no man on his side, not even residual warmth.

It's obviously been a long time since I've been up.

Then he turned his gaze to the pillow, where he placed a clean set of clothes and a note.

The food was warm in the pot, and I went to the private school to find my husband.

She frowned slightly, and after half a sound, got dressed and went out of the room.

There is no one else in the family except her.

After eating, she didn't plan to go up the mountain, and steamed all the flowers she picked yesterday.

It was estimated that there would be a long time before the steaming was completed, so he wanted to take the dirty clothes to the river to wash, and there were the clothes that Qi Yunqing changed last night.

One by one, she rummaged through her clothes to see what was left in her clothes.

Touching a touch of black, she spread out her clothes, and found that her shoulders were dirtier than the others, but not very noticeable.

Her willow eyebrows gradually frowned into a straight line.

……

Today's perfumes are all put in porcelain bottles, but the perfume of Camellia is not packed before the porcelain bottle.

Today's Qi Yunqing came back later than yesterday, and Lin Jiahua was asleep.

Li He, who had been wandering in the yard, saw that he was back, and immediately surrounded him, and couldn't help but ask, "Yunqing, why did you go home so late?" ”

"The gentleman left me for dinner, and then came back late."

Qi Yunqing then said: "Mother, Jin'er, it's late at night in the future, don't wait for me, nothing will happen to me." ”

Su Jin didn't ask anything, turned around and went into the kitchen to bring him food, and whispered, "My mother left it for you, eat as much as you want." Then he went into the kitchen and warmed the hot water for him.

"Yunqing, eat as much as you want, these are all specially made for you by Jin'er, and I haven't waited for you to come back, she hasn't eaten a few bites." Li He explained softly.

Hearing this, Qi Yunqing's eyes fell on the busy figure in the kitchen, his gaze was soft into spring water, and the self-blame hidden in the depths of his eyes.

……

When the two of them went to bed, it was almost time.

The two hugged each other quietly, and before Su Jin could ask, he heard the man's slightly heavy breathing, as if he was overtired.

Su Jinxing's eyes in the dark were complicated......

It was about three o'clock, and there was a slight sound of dressing on his side, and Su Jin's consciousness was instantly awake, but he didn't open his eyes.

After a while, I heard the door open and close.

She opened her eyes, and the sight was gray, and she got up and walked to the window, and through the gap, she happened to see his departing back, and vaguely saw him rubbing his eyebrows.

……

Half an hour later, it was dawn.

She told Li He to go to Xiuyunfang, and then took a donkey cart to the town at the head of the village.

After getting out of the donkey cart, she went straight to the dock, and walked for about a quarter of an hour before reaching the dock.

She didn't come closer, but looked behind a large tree in the distance.

Most of the wharves were men in sackcloth and gowns, carrying boxes on their shoulders, their bodies slightly downward, and their clothes faintly showing signs of being wet with sweat.

Suddenly, his eyes focused on the man who came out of the merchant ship at this moment, he was different from the other men, his body was a little thinner, he was not wearing a sackcloth and gown, and he did not roll up his sleeves.

Eyes moved to his slightly lowered face, and it was clear that his forehead was covered with beads of sweat and thin lips were pursed.

Su Jin's hands on both sides tightened, and his throat overflowed with discomfort.

This man always has his own arrogance, never willing to spend a penny on her, and even always relies on his own hands to give her and Li He a better life.

After watching for a moment, she turned and left, and no one could see her reddish eyes.

……

Near noon, there are more stalls on the dock, including noodle stalls, food stalls, and stalls for buying steamed buns.

Several scents are mixed together, and the men who are working frequently look at them.

After a while, the dock steward saw that it was not too early, and allowed them to eat.

Many men are squeezing to the place where steamed buns are sold, and everyone is eager to use a penny as two pennies in these years, and they will also spend copper plates on food, so that they can pad their stomachs.

Sun Qing relied on his strong body, so he squeezed in and bought two big steamed buns for two yuan.

After coming out, he handed one to Qi Yunqing, "Yunqing, give it." ”

Qi Yunqing took out two pennies from his arms and gave it to him, "Thank you, Brother Sun." ”

Sun Qing took it a little embarrassed, after all, it is not easy for anyone to make money, not to mention that his daughter-in-law is about to give birth, and he has to save this money.

Then the two of them found a slightly cleaner place to sit down, bowing their heads and nibbling on steamed buns.

The steamed buns made of coarse grains were particularly choking, and Sun Qing couldn't swallow it, Qi Yunqing didn't have any expression, and ate it one bite at a time.

Suddenly, it was dark in front of him, and a food box was handed to Qi Yunqing's eyes.

He didn't look at the food box at first glance, but at the embroidered women's shoes that broke in on the ground.

Too familiar.

His body stiffened for a few seconds, and at the same time, the steamed bun in his hand was pinched and dented.

After a second or two, he raised his head, met the woman's pretty face, he pursed his lips and said, "You know? ”

Su Jin let out a light "um", and just wanted to sit next to him, he heard him say, "Wait a minute." ”

Then he handed her the steamed buns, then took off his coat and spread it on the ground, "Sit down." ”
