Chapter 43 43: Under the Little Screen Mountain
Under the small screen mountain, the sun is in.
The evening breeze is slightly cool.
Ji Shu and his entourage of four stayed at the Sleeping Wind Inn.
Sleeping Wind Inn is built at the foot of Xiaoping Mountain, with a total of two floors, each floor is built with thick logs at the mouth of the bowl, which is beautiful and sturdy, clean and warm, and quite distinctive. The inn has a large courtyard surrounded by flowers and trees. On the opposite side is a small road in Rao Mountain, and there are not a few people who usually do business and stop on the road.
There is a worldly bustle.
Ji Shu and they rode for a day, and with the memory of the last time they entered Beijing, they found the Sleeping Wind Inn, opened two rooms, and stayed on the second floor.
After dinner, there is nothing to do.
Ah Ning flipped through it with a book of medical skills, and Yu Qian'er next door didn't make a fuss, and took out the "Wu Zi" in the package and read it carefully.
Ji Shu didn't have to pick up sesame seeds, and it was inconvenient to bother Yu Qian'er to work hard, and he still felt relaxed after a day of traveling. So he took advantage of the thin sun outside and walked around.
There is a small slope not far ahead, and a few cold pomegranates are planted on the slope, and the cold pomegranate flowers are blooming happily at this time. The fiery red pomegranate flowers bloom one by one, like tiny lanterns dotting the twilight.
Ji Shu thought it was good-looking, so he went up the slope.
"Who?" A voice came from the other side of the slope.
Ji Shu paused: "Cardamom Su? ”
Su Cardamom had already gone uphill from the other side, and when he saw Ji Shu, he said happily: "Ji Mingming!" I knew you were going to come out, so I called you along. ”
Ji Shu wondered: "Cardamom Su, why are you here?" ”
Slowly getting acquainted with each other, Ji Shu naturally gave up "Miss Su" or "Cardamom Girl" and called her by her name.
"It's nothing, picking flowers!" Cardamom Su smiled and said, "I think this pomegranate flower is very beautiful. ”
Sure enough, she grabbed a small bag in her hand, and the bag sewn by cotton yarn puffed softly on her stomach.
A small bag of cold pomegranate flowers.
At this time, Su Cardamom was completely like two people when he was in the barracks. At that time, she was dressed as a man and looked heroic, with few words, and her voice was deliberately lowered to hide her female form.
If you contact her again, no one would have thought that she was a cheerful and lively woman.
The more the two are compared, the more people feel that there are a lot of confusing things about Su Cardamom, and the temperament revealed in her words and deeds makes people feel that this woman exudes a light that is difficult to ignore.
Su Cardamom, who the hell are you?
Suddenly, Ji Shu's brain flashed, Su Cardamom wouldn't be a member of the Su family, right?
"What is your relationship with Fuzhou Agarwood Pavilion?" Ji Shu blurted out.
The grinning Su Cardamom restrained his smile when he heard this, looked at Ji Shu with bright eyes, seemed to sigh, and then laughed again: "Ji Zhenming, you are really smart, you can guess this." ”
"It's not difficult to guess," Ji Shu said generously, "My stepmother prefers the incense products of the Agarwood Pavilion, the balm, the lipstick, oh, by the way, A-Ning brought two boxes of rouge from the Agarwood Pavilion with her, and she happily showed them to me, which is very good." Your surname is Su, and you can make incense, and you also sprinkled a handful of osmanthus powder on the official road ten miles outside Luomei Town where Yu Qian'er and I passed. Miss Su, although the surname Su is in the world, Ji Shu still thinks that you should be from the Agarwood Pavilion. ”
"Wonderful!" Su Cardamom clapped his hands, "It is worthy of being the righteous son raised by the lord of Ji Bao." ”
"Prize!" Ji Shu said, "I just think that only the teachings from the Agarwood Pavilion are worthy of the Cardamom Girl's clever hands." After all, the Agarwood Pavilion has a hundred years of accumulation. ”
Who knew that Su Cardamom "snorted" and said disapprerovitically: "Even if it is a hundred years of accumulation, I am afraid it will be difficult to hide the ugliness and decay!" ”
Ji Shu frowned slightly and blinked.
I don't know why.
"Ji Zhenming, look, there are so many stars in the sky!" After Su Cardamom finished despying the Agarwood Pavilion, he looked up and actually found the stars dotted on the sky.
She grabbed Ji Shu's sleeve, raised her little face, and said with a smile: "It's a pity that there is no moon." When I was a child, I loved looking at the moon the most. I feel that the moon is really magical and beautiful, whirring like a small bright hook, and huhu has grown fat and rounded. My aunt danced a dance under the moonlight, telling me that when the moon is full, there is a deficiency, life is hard, and it is good to live happily. ”
She was immersed in memories, and she didn't loosen her sleeve for a long time, but Ji Shu's body stiffened for a moment, silently waiting for her to finish speaking. I also felt that the change of the moon in her mouth was very vivid, and I couldn't help but breed wisps of joy in my heart.
He remembered that when he was younger, he was with Yu Qian'er in Jijiabao, and he couldn't sleep at night and ran out to catch birds, especially on moonlit nights, and he was inexplicably energetic.
The moonlight dissolves, and it does have more flavor.
Su Cardamom didn't answer for a long time, and then she realized what she was holding in her hand. Her face turned red and she said apologetically: "When I was a child, I always loved to grab A-Niang's sleeve with one hand and point to the moon with the other, hehe, you won't mind, right?" ”
Ji Shu said: "It's okay. ”
A heart thumped.
Is this the real Su Cardamom? Love to talk and laugh, and unabashed their joy and distress?
"When you want to learn to ride a horse, I can teach you." Ji Shu suddenly remembered that Su Cardamom didn't know how to ride a horse yet, so he made a suggestion.
"Okay!"
Ji Shu didn't expect Su Cardamom to answer so briskly, and he was surprised for a moment.
Seeing him like this, Su Cardamom laughed, she smiled happily and brightly, she was completely a girl with no city.
"What, you don't believe it? Or am I just talking? She looked into Ji Shu's eyes, although it was completely dark at this time, and she couldn't see the expression on his face, but she just looked at him like that.
Ji Shu: "No. ”
"Nothing?" Su Cardamom asked unrelentingly.
"As long as you learn, I'll teach."
"Of course you have to learn. I thought about it," Su Cardamom said, "and there are some things that are better to face than to run away." A-Niang is right, 'Cardamom Su, if you want something, you can fight for it yourself, there is nothing to be afraid of. ’”
If, if a person is born with fine clothes and food, what do you want, who needs to fight desperately?
If there is no deceit in the world, no division of interests, and no insatiable desires, who wants to fight hard?
Strive for it, but also because there is something worth pursuing in your heart.
And to be alive is in itself a struggle.
The crescent moon like a small hook on the horizon gradually sank to the west and slowly disappeared.
"Ji Zhenming, aren't you curious why I don't dare to ride a horse?" Cardamom Sue continued to ask.
"Curious." Ji Shu replied, "But I don't want to explore other people's privacy. If you don't tell, I won't ask. ”
"Good! What a 'I won't ask if you don't tell me'! Su Cardamom said, "Ji Zhenming, I think you are a gentleman." ”
This made Ji Shu a little embarrassed: "Ashamed! Speaking of gentlemen, my senior brother is! I miss him very much when I say goodbye to my senior brother," Ji Shu paused, as if he saw Ji Mo, "I don't know if my senior brother is okay?" ”
If you talk about a gentleman, probably only a senior brother can be called it.
Firm forbearance, diligence, no illness or dryness, gentleness and courtesy......
"Ji Zhenming, don't you think you're also very good?" Su Cardamom said, "Not only is he good at disguise, but he is also serious and trustworthy." Su Cardamom nodded to herself and said affirmatively, "Well, I can't be wrong about whether a person is good or not!" ”
"Oh? Be...... Is it? Ji Shu was caught off guard and was praised by Su Cardamom, and felt that this girl was a little incredible.
He said half-seriously and half-jokingly, "I'm really good, so in this way, my excellence is quite obvious?" ”
Su Cardamom looked at the sky speechlessly, and there was nothing to see on the vast canopy except for a few stars twinkling by themselves. She secretly thought in her heart that Ji Zhenming was not only an excellent person, but also thick-skinned.
Despite this, she still said honestly: "The barracks and workshops get along for a month, and your excellence is not only visible to me, but also obvious to all." It is rumored that Tetsu Young-san is still amazed and admired by your makeup skills. Besides, you are a bold and careful person, who knows how to advance and retreat, and who has a degree of judgment. ”
These words were word-for-word, and they were extremely clear and drilled into Ji Shu's ears. After listening, he was stunned for a moment.
No one had ever said anything like that to him. Today, not only has he been told by anyone, but this man is a woman with whom he has only been with him for a month.
So far, he only guessed that she was probably the woman of the Su family in Fuzhou Agarwood Pavilion - and she did not deny it.
This girl is ...... It's so transparent!
Until he returned to the inn room, he was still reminiscing about Su Cardamom's words, those words were not much, but they really gave him a lot of impact.
Let him think further about who he really is, why he lives, and who he lives for.
If he didn't know what he was going to do in the future before, and he was still confused about what he would do in the future, then Su Cardamom's words accidentally cleared the fog in front of him and made his future clear.
He asked himself: What is makeup?
He replied: Make-up is essentially disguise, or make-up is born from disguise and out of disguise.
Wearing a mask and makeup is a wonderful, two-part color. The two are the relationship between true colors and brilliance.
He's obsessed with makeup, so let's carry it forward.
Thinking of this, Ji Shu suddenly felt a surge of blood, which boiled his body and burned his brain. He was sober and drifting like a cloud, and he suddenly didn't know what time it was.
He drifted into the guest room like a lost soul, and when he entered the guest room without speaking, he instinctively poured himself a glass of boiling water, and drank it without knowing it.
Suddenly, he raised his head, opened his eyes, looked straight at Yu Qian'er, and said in a sleepwalking voice and tone: "Yu Qian'er, in the future, I want to have a two-story shop in a prosperous place in the market, set a good name, and specialize in makeup, what do you think?" ”
Yu Qian'er waited for him to enter the house to speak, but he didn't expect to wait for these words, so he said firmly: "Extinguishing Ming, it was only two moments before and after you went out for a walk, how could you be hooked by the mountain and forest fox demon?" Looking at this situation, I am afraid that the three souls and seven spirits are missing two souls and six spirits. ”
Ji Shu suddenly came back to his senses and said solemnly: "Yu Qian'er, I'm serious!" ”
Yu Qian'er looked at him for a while: "I said extinguishing Ming, where do you like the market, where is the prosperous place?" ”
Ji Shu: "Well, I haven't thought about it yet. But there will always be. ”
Yu Qian'er: "In that case, you are not bad for anything else,—— so let's pay attention to that prosperous place first." ”
