Twenty-three (4)
The light rain has been dripping, along the eaves of the rain falling on the bluestone slab in the yard, the four fields are quiet, the sound of the rain is like jade knocking on the celadon, and it is like a colorful bead curtain that will be hung in summer, the wind blows gently, it will make such a tinkling sound.
Shen Qiangrose originally slept very lightly, but at this moment, listening to the sound of rain, she woke up unconsciously. Turning on the small lamp next to the bed, the tiny circle of light happened to be reflected on the nearest window, because the window was old-fashioned, and the putty on it had been old, and a lot of rain had entered the gap, and it was dripping down the wall.
The chill mixed with the cold wind penetrated little by little, and the night was stretched out for no reason. Shen Qiangrose put on her coat and walked to the window, and saw the weeping willow in the yard trembling, the street at that end was pitch black, and the outline of the ancient buildings and alleys could be faintly seen, the drizzle was miserable, and the night was deep.
Everything became very quiet.
In such a night, the slight cold wind blew her mind heavy, she wrapped her clothes, but heard a miscellaneous footsteps, the door was quickly pushed open, and the nurse hurriedly walked in, while saying, "Miss Shen, quickly change your clothes, you and the little master have to leave." ”
Shen Qiangrose saw her in a hurry, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The nurse saw that her complexion was extremely bad, and she didn't have time to explain at the moment, so she only said, "It was the eldest young master's people who came to inform her, saying that Su Dashuai sent someone to this side, and you must leave immediately." ”
Shen Qiangrose also knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, but she was in a hurry back and forth, she was a pregnant woman, and she was not rested properly, so her body was naturally not as good as before. The nurse helped her change her clothes, and when she saw that her face was flushed, she slowly helped her out.
Mr. Liao waited downstairs with a few errands, and when he saw her, he said: "Miss Shen, all the checkpoints to Pengcheng have been removed, it is too strange to remove the checkpoints at this time, the young master means that we will take the train to Pengcheng, although the risk is very high, but it is also relatively safe." ”
Shen Qiangrose nodded, and walked out with them, the rain was heavy outside, and only the snowy headlights could be seen dimly. There was a lot of rain on the bluestone slab, and all the way over, the hem of the splashed cheongsam was soaked.
She was originally wearing extremely thin clothes, but at the moment the wind and rain were urgent, and she didn't feel shivering. Fortunately, it was very close to the car, Mr. Liao quickly opened the car door, she sat up, and saw Qiao Yunhua leaning on the other side, her face was pale, her thin lips were tightly pursed, and she looked extremely weak.
"How?" she asked. ”
Qiao Yunhua was originally in poor spirits, but seeing that she had a plain face, her eyes were set off by the headlights, but they were shining. He hooked his lips and smiled, "I can't die yet." ”
When Shen Qiangrose heard him say this, she couldn't tell what it was like in her heart, so she changed the topic and said: "According to Su Shengbai's suspicious temperament, I'm afraid there are many of his people at the train station." ”
The smile on the corner of Qiao Yunhua's mouth gradually froze, and he looked at her directly, his eyes like boundless dark night. The car slowly drove out of the alley, the headlights were yellow and clear in the rain, the corners of his mouth moved, he looked away, and said lightly: "Don't worry." ”
Looking out the window, there were showers, the moon shadow was hazy, and I couldn't see anything. He leaned against the window and watched the street get farther and farther away.
After making two turns, the car drove to the train station, which was lined with guards everywhere. Mr. Liao glanced out the window, then at his watch, and then said, "We're all ready, it's nine-ten, and there are still ten minutes before the train starts, so we have to hurry." ”
As he spoke, he quickly got out of the car, holding up his umbrella and opening the rear door at the same time. Qiao Yunhua glanced out, and then walked down calmly. Shen Qiangrose got out of the car after him, and saw several men walking across the street, each with a swift step, with a soldier's unique posture.
Shen Qiangrose was thinking about the identity of this group of people, but suddenly Qiao Yunhua held her hand, his palm was warm and strong, holding her tightly, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, these are my people." ”
Shen Qiangrose didn't like his frivolous appearance the most, and wanted to break free, but she was afraid of attracting the attention of the guards, so she had to follow him step by step towards the station.
On such a rainy night, there are very few people in and out of the train station, and the guards guarding outside wear raincoats to check the crowd of people, but the rain is too strong and the investigation is not rigorous. Mr. Liao walked in the front and handed out the special pass, and the guard saw that the few people in front of him were unusual, and their attitude obviously changed a lot, and after reading the pass, they were very polite to give way.
Although Shen Qiangrose felt abnormal, it was too cold at the moment, and she didn't think about it, just walked in quickly. There were guards with guns everywhere in the station, but the lights were too dim, and the faint black shadows made her panic.
Qiao Yunhua was very calm, holding her hand and walking slowly towards the side of the train, the rain was heavy, and only a few sparse figures were seen. There was a rumbling head, but it was a train that slowly drove by.
The guards in the station immediately held their guns to block the crowd and went into a state of alert. The flow of people was blocked on the other side, and Shen Qiangrose saw that it was a special train, but she didn't know what kind of character it was. Someone in the back whispered, "Did you hear that?" Recently, Fusang has been very strong, and he has captured the first line of Mingyang! Now that Qishao's whereabouts are unknown, I see that the scenery of the southland is almost over! ”
"Isn't it, many people are going to the north now, and I heard that Su Dashuai is going to unite with the north! I don't know if it can be done, and I don't know what kind of big people are in this special train! ”
Shen Qiangrose listened to these few words, and her intuition caused a panic in her heart, and she couldn't stop jumping wildly. I couldn't help but caress my chest, raised my eyes to look, and saw that the train had already left, the steam rose into a white mist, and the rain curtain covered my eyes like a misty, and in a trance I could only see a few unreal shadows in the train, and soon drove away along the tracks.
Qiao Yunhua looked at Shen Qiangrose, her expression a little unpredictable. I wanted to say something, but I just grabbed her hand. Seeing the train slowly coming behind him, he said, "Are you cold?" ”
Shen Qiangrose stroked her chest, only felt uneasy, shook her head, and said, "I don't feel cold now, it's just that my chest is stuffy." ”
The train stopped quickly, and Qiao Yunhua pulled her over and said, "You are also tired in the past two days, let's go." ”
Shen Qiangrose took a deep breath, the rain was heavier at this time, the lights in the rain curtain were dim and yellow, like the lonely lamp of the ancient temple, the rain was blowing obliquely, listening to the ears, destroying the withering and decaying.
When I got on the train, the crowd began to crowd and there was a lot of noise. Shen Qiangrose reluctantly got into the car, and when she looked back, all the high-rise buildings in the distance were hidden under the rain curtain, and the cold rain was dashing, and she couldn't see anything.
It wasn't until she was in the box that Shen Qiangrose felt chills, she sat on the side, and saw the train slowly starting, the rain rustled, the moon dimly revealed a trace of light, and the rain was like a thin needle. She was looking at it in a daze, but she felt a heat on her body, it turned out that Qiao Yunhua took a blanket and put it on her, and said, "Your face is too bad, rest for a while." ”
After this toss, Shen Qiangrose was indeed a little physically exhausted, she lay down on the sleeper, and saw Qiao Yunhua put up another blanket for her, "Have a good rest, I'm out." ”
Shen Qiangwei sighed, but saw that he kept a leaning posture and looked at her, he had lost a lot of weight in the past few days, his eyes were also blue, his lips were tightly pursed, and he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.
Shen Qiangrose didn't dare to look at it again, closed her eyes and turned over. There was silence for a long time, as if time had slowed down, she only felt that the world was spinning, as if she was on a boat, her whole body was shaking, she listened silently for a moment, only to hear footsteps, and soon the sound of the door closing.
She opened her eyes, saw that the carriage was empty, and the sound of the train clanging in her ears was in her ears, and her intuition seemed to have gone a long way, and when she raised her eyes, it was pitch black outside the window, and time became abrasive for no reason, she took out the pair of jade bracelets of the dragon stone species, and looked at it carefully.
Since she married Su Huiyi, she has never brought this pair of bracelets once, and she always feels that such a precious thing should be treasured. But he ignored Su Huiyi's original intention of giving her the bracelet, she was a girl with no mother and no relatives, and married to the Overseer's Mansion alone, at that time he took out this pair of bracelets, not because of how precious its material was, but because it was his mother's old thing, and it was given to her, so it was not a deep love.
The Su family is an old-fashioned to decadent family, and the family style has always been rigorous. Su Shengbai has expanded his territory for half his life and accumulated the wealth of the enemy country, and he has always been very strict with his sons, especially Su Huiyi, because he is a young son and a descendant. Since he was a child, he has carried a very heavy burden, and he always looks like he is old.
At that time, she always liked to run to the Overseer's Mansion, pestering him with him, and in his free time he would take her to play, fly kites, fight crickets, and even cross rivers.
Now that I think about it, at that age when she didn't know anything, she never met a playmate, but a man worth entrusting for life. She remembered that her mother used to say that she was the smartest girl and understood what it meant to be big and small. But in fact, she is the stupidest girl, and the grandmother who followed Su Huiyi told her that Qishao always didn't sleep at night, did all the homework for the next day, and then sat alone at the desk to draw kites, and accompanied her to fly kites the next day.
She remembered that he always pretended to be serious, as if he couldn't help but be pestered by her, so he would play with her. If you think about it carefully, it turns out that she is the one who finally realizes it.
The sound of the rain outside the window was rustling, and through the window I saw the trees planted opposite, scattered in rows, obviously it was spring, but the leaves were very sparse, like dead trees in late autumn, crumbling in the rain.
She didn't want to cry, but as soon as she thought of Su Huiyi, tears flowed out uncontrollably, and her chest burned like a cramp. She stroked her lower abdomen and felt the power of a new life.
The rain was endless, and her tears were falling violently.
She muttered, "Su Huiyi, where are you?" Where the hell are you? Why don't you come back to me? ”
