Life: Seven
He even remembered her name, which made Shi Qiu's heart jump for a while, and after arranging the work of the guys, Shi Qiu personally took the wine and went to the private room where Su Zhi was.
Approaching, Shi Qiu's hand was raised, and quietly put it down, looking down at his neat clothes, and then reaching out to comb the hair on both sides, before knocking on the door gently.
There was no expected "enter", Shi Qiu was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, he saw the door creak open, Su Zhi stepped aside to let Shi Qiu into the house, and then closed the door again.
"I ......"
"You ......"
For a moment, the two of them spoke at the same time, and there was inevitably some joy in their words.
When the words fell, it was Su Zhi who took the lead in speaking, "I didn't expect you to really come to the north, and I didn't expect that I would meet you again." ”
Shi Qiu put down the wine in his hand, his cheeks flushed slightly, "I didn't expect it either." ”
Su Zhi sat down in front of the window and looked up at Shi Qiu, "You, how are you doing?" ”
Shi Qiu nodded and sat down on the side, "It was difficult at the beginning, but now I finally got through." ”
"That's good, everything is difficult at the beginning, and it will get better and better in the future." Su Zhi saw that Shiqiu had changed a lot now compared to back then, his demeanor and temperament were less fragile and uneasy, and he had a little more mature charm between his eyebrows, with the heroism of a northern woman, and the delicacy of a southern girl.
Shi Qiu met his gaze, feeling that he had experienced so much and met many people, and there would be such a cramped and uneasy time, so he opened his mouth for a moment of embarrassment, and just wanted to thank Su Zhi, but when he heard Su Zhi seem to think about it for a moment, he asked her: "You, are you married?" ”
With this question, Shi Qiu's face suddenly burned a little panicked, straightened his body and forced himself to calm down, shook his head and said, "Yet, no." That's it, and said embarrassedly: "It's really not too young, it makes you laugh." ”
Su Zhi hurriedly shook his head, "No, it's good." ”
"Huh?" Shi Qiu couldn't figure out what Su Zhi meant for a while.
"I mean, I'm actually bigger than you."
When Shi Qiu heard this, he smiled slightly, raised his eyes to look at the gentle smile in front of him as before, it was hard to imagine that such a careful and polite person would be a person who charged into battle on the battlefield and fought bloodily.
Now that there is no longer the mentality of the youngest daughter, Shi Qiu calmed down, and said sincerely: "In the Yuelao Temple back then, and today's incident, I didn't have time to say thank you properly, if there was no you back then, I don't know what my fate should be like at this time, thank you." ”
"You should thank yourself." Su Zhi smiled, "It was you who were decisive and brave, careful and courageous, and dared to fight against fate, I actually didn't help you anything, your freedom, your life, are the result of your own efforts." ”
That's it, Su Zhi added: "After meeting in the Yuelao Temple, I admired you very much. ”
The door knocked lightly twice, and the shopkeeper brought up the appetizers with his hands and feet, Shi Qiu picked up the wine jug with one hand, filled the wine glass in front of Su Zhi, and picked it up himself, and said to Su Zhi: "Anyway, Shi Qiu's glass of wine is a tribute to Lord Su, and I am grateful for the grace of saving him." ”
Su Zhi picked up the wine and didn't drink it directly, but looked at Shi Qiu and said: "I'm not an adult, when I met you, I was just an injured soldier, you didn't save my life, I should thank you." ”
Shi Qiu covered his lips and smiled, "Where is it as serious as you say, you are just an old wound, and you don't have to worry about your life, I will help you, it's just a matter of raising your hands." ”
Su Zhi saw Shi Qiu smile, his heart was also a lot more comfortable, he put his words very slowly, and said: "Actually, I looked for you later, but in the vast sea of people, I don't know where you went." ”
Shi Qiu drank the wine in the cup and said with feeling: "At that time, the sky was big, and even I didn't know where to go. ”
Su Zhi said tightly: "When I was separated from you, I didn't feel much, but after a long time, I found that I always missed you in my heart, and I couldn't find it when I looked for it later, fortunately you are safe and sound now, otherwise I am afraid that I will regret it for the rest of my life." ”
Hearing this, Shi Qiu felt a little changed in his heart, seeing him care about himself like this, he was pleasantly surprised, but also a little apprehensive, and listened to Su Zhi and said: "In the old temple that month, we already had skin-to-skin contact, and it is not good for you to be alone in the same room all day and night." ”
Shi Qiu was embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "You and I are forced to do it, and others ...... talk about this matter."
"It doesn't matter if others know about it, but I know in my heart that I regret that I didn't take responsibility back then, and I almost missed you."
Shi Qiu raised his eyes and looked at Su Zhi, "My lord, what do you mean?" ”
Su Zhi seemed to be a little embarrassed at this time, but in the end, he was in a broad mood and knew that he couldn't miss it anymore, so he said what was in his heart.
"Fortunately, you are not married, and I want to marry you."
Shi Qiu's heart pounded like a muffled drum for a moment, and after a long time, he lowered his head again and said: "Thank you Lord Su for your love, but Shi Qiu secretly swore when he ran away that he would not be a concubine in this life, and I am afraid that he will not be able to agree to the adult." ”
Su Zhi put the wine back on the table, laughed loudly, stood up, bent down in front of Shi Qiu, looked at her softly, and said, "Silly girl, which one makes you a concubine?" ”
Shi Qiu raised his head suddenly, almost hit Su Zhi's chin, and said in surprise: "You are good-looking, have a good character, and have an official position, how can you ...... after so many years?" ”
Su Zhi straightened his waist, breathed a sigh of relief and seemed to be relieved, "It turns out that I still have many advantages in your heart, I thought you would blame me for not being responsible for you at that time." ”
Shi Qiu's face turned red in an instant, "We are innocent, what responsibility do I want you to bear?" ”
"Negative." Su Zhi said: "You don't know how much I regretted letting you go back then, I didn't marry for so many years, but I always felt that I could still meet you." ”
Shi Qiu forced himself to suppress the panic in his heart, and looked at Su Zhi seriously: "If the adult takes the etiquette very seriously, and he has been looking for me for so many years out of responsibility, then I can't live with you, now the adults can rest assured, you are responsible, but I don't want to accept it, the two of us will write off the things of the year, and in the future, adults will never delay the marriage because of Shi Qiu." ”
Su Zhi was a little frustrated, sighed and said to Shi Qiu: "If I say, "responsibility" and the like, are all excuses I made, I just saw the color, and even I didn't expect to fall in love with you at first sight back then?" ”
Shi Qiu looked at Su Zhi's eyes, and saw that there was no greed of the womanizers in this world, but full of joy that had been lost and regained, so he felt a little incredible, but he heard Su Zhi's words a little depressed in his ears, and said: "Or do you think that I am just a person who met in Pingshui, and over the years, I have long forgotten about it." ”
"No, it's not." Shi Qiu opened her mouth and was about to defend herself, wanting to tell Su Zhi that she was not like that, in the past few years, she has often thought of him, and she seems to have been thinking about him all along, but when the words came to her mouth, she felt ashamed, but she had already opened her mouth, causing this situation of wanting to talk about it and ending it, which was even more ambiguous and embarrassing.
Su Zhi listened, but he laughed, picked up the wine jug and filled the wine glasses of the two people, held one cup in his hand, and handed the other cup to Shi Qiudao: "When we met in the old temple of the moon, maybe it was the fate that God gave us, and the separation for so many years just let us see our hearts clearly, now that we meet again, don't miss it, okay?" ”
Suddenly, he was about to face a marriage event, and Shi Qiu, such a decisive person, suddenly had no idea.
Su Zhi knew that Shi Qiu was flustered, so he didn't force her, only handed the wine glass to her hand, and comforted: "Don't worry, I still have to stay in Liangcheng for a few days, you think about it, if you think I'm not good and don't agree to your marriage, I won't blame you." ”
Shi Qiu listened, and then his heart gradually eased up again, drank the wine in the cup, got up and hurriedly walked out of the door of the private room.
Lying in her room at night, Shi Qiu covered her head with the quilt, thinking that Su Zhi was the most powerful man she had ever seen in this world. Now that they met at first sight, but a few words, half a meal, her heart was turned upside down, and she thought of him when she was working while eating, and now she was lying on the bed, tossing and turning for an hour or two, and she was still thinking about him.
Shi Qiu was delighted in her heart, and worried, glad that the person she secretly missed still remembered her, and was also thinking about her, and was worried that Shi Qiu felt that what she had was all obtained step by step, and God suddenly gave her such a big surprise, which made her a little afraid to accept it for a while, for fear that this was just an unrealistic dream, he was just idle and teasing her, and when the scholar in the drama deceived the woman from a good family, it seemed to be like this.
Within a few days, Shi Qiu's godfather found out about Shi Qiu's situation, and Shi Qiu now has no elders around him besides him, so he told his godfather about his situation.
The old man listened, laughed, said that he and Shi Qiuniang worshiped heaven and earth, and when they entered the cave room, they lifted their hijabs to know each other's appearances, and then they lived, stumbling and getting angry and quarrelling.
In the end, Shi Qiu's godfather smiled, he was already a little confused, and told Shi Qiu over and over again that fate was uncertain.
