Chapter 138: Out of Anger
Jiang Muyuan clearly saw his appearance in Gu Yunjin's eyes, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and quietly took a step away from his gaze.
There is a difference between men and women, and it is always inappropriate for him to look at it vigorously.
Although it is extremely inappropriate to visit tonight.
After taking a sip of the teacup, Jiang Muyuan simply looked at the furnishings in the second room.
Except for Shou'an, Jiang Muyuan has never set foot in the boudoir of other girls' houses.
After Pearl Lane bought it, he had come to see it once before, and the empty courtyard was very ordinary.
But once people lived, they suddenly had a fresh life, especially the little girl's family, with a light spice on the table, slightly sweet, but not greasy.
Between breaths, the mouth and nose linger, and the heart is melted.
Slowly taking a long breath, Jiang Muyuan looked at Bo Gujia.
Xu borrowed the relationship for several months, and there were very few things on it, a few books were listed here and there, and there were two stubborn stones, which still looked a little familiar.
Gu Yunjin followed Jiang Muyuan's line of sight, and saw him staring at the two stones thoughtfully, so he said, "That stone was originally from this house, and the eldest lady said that there were too few things in my house, so she brought them to me." ”
Jiang Muyuan nodded clearly, no wonder he felt familiar, he should have brought it back when he went out of Beijing last time, and he didn't take it back to the Gongfu Mansion, he asked Tingfeng to find a place to collect it, and it was also a coincidence that Tingfeng happened to be collected in Pearl Lane.
The stones rested in the girl's house, and they looked hard and cold, and I knew that it was so, and I should have looked for corals at that time.
There is also a blue and white porcelain pot resting on the flower stand in the corner of the house, and two palm-sized lotus leaves floating.
Jiang Muyuan's eyes were sharp, and he vaguely saw the ripples of the water, and asked, "What else is raised in the water?" ”
"Two small fish," Gu Yunjin said with a smile, "Our wife likes it, saying that it looks more lively." ”
Jiang Muyuan also smiled, stood up and walked to the porcelain basin, gently opened the lotus leaf, and saw the small fish swimming in the water.
The fish is very small, only the length of his little finger, and the golden body of the fish swings in the middle of the water, isn't it lively.
He remembered that when he went back to the Gu family's courtyard before, he saw pots of flowers under the porch, and the flowers and leaves had been smoked all night, and the leaves were dying, but he could still imagine the flowers here before the disaster.
It's not a big place, but it's lively.
Gu Yunjin also followed, standing aside and watching, Jiang Muyuan's slender fingers shallow on the surface of the water, swinging a circle of water waves.
"It's okay for you to live in, the house is to be popular," Jiang Muyuan talked to Gu Yunjin while playing in the water for a while, "I haven't cleaned up carefully here, I remember that there is a small garden in this courtyard?" ”
Gu Yunjin bowed his head and said, "Just later, my wife and my aunt discussed adding some flowers and plants." ”
Jiang Muyuan's smile deepened, he withdrew his hand blocking the lotus leaves, and said, "I'll have someone send some in two days, Mrs. Gu is good at planting flowers, so take care of the garden for me." ”
Gu Yunjin was slightly stunned.
Jiang Muyuan thought for a while, and then said, "It's your rental money." ”
Hearing this, Gu Yunjin became more and more stunned, and then, she understood what Jiang Muyuan meant, and the doubts in her eyes gradually dissipated, and what remained was countless gratitude.
In the past few months, Jiang Muyuan has helped her too many times, and she also owes too many favors.
In addition to being grateful, Gu Yunjin probably can't repay these debts with her ability, not because she doesn't bother with more debts, but because she knows the depths.
Jiang Muyuan asked them to take care of the garden and pay for the house, this account itself is uneven, but what he means is actually elsewhere, first, to explain this transaction, so that she doesn't have to feel indebted, and secondly, he doesn't want them to think too much, he helped them, and originally wanted to have a calculated return.
The aunt of the Jia family also said that the gentlemen were careful, but Gu Yunjin wanted to say that Jiang Muyuan was no longer careful.
She nodded earnestly and agreed.
The two of them stood by the window, and the movement outside was much more obvious.
On summer nights, insects chirp, and I used to listen to irritability, but today I feel cool in my ears.
Jiang Muyuan crossed his arms and looked at the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, but Gu Yunjin looked at his hand for a moment.
She noticed that Jiang Muyuan's left hand holding his right arm was gently rubbing his elbow joint, the range of movement was not large, and the force was small, whether it was conscious or unconscious.
Gu Yunjin remembered that Jiang Muyuan's right hand seemed to be injured when he heard the wind that day.
"Little grandfather," Gu Yunjin said softly, asking with a little concern, "Is it that the right arm was injured and not healed that night when he was fighting the fire?" ”
Jiang Muyuan turned his head to look at her, lowered his eyes to his right hand again, and when he raised his head again, there was some surprise in his eyes: "Why do you ask that?" ”
Gu Yunjin pursed his lips and said, "I heard the wind say that day, saying that you always hold your arms, and you are worried that you will be uncomfortable if you use too much energy to fight the fire, have you called the doctor to see?" ”
As if thinking of something, the emotion in Jiang Muyuan's eyes flashed, so fast that Gu Yunjin had disappeared before he could figure it out.
Jiang Muyuan still smiled and said, "It's okay, it's an old injury, and it has nothing to do with the firefighting that day." ”
Gu Yunjin responded, Jiang Muyuan has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he has followed Ning Guogong to the battlefield, and in the past two years, he has been running around for the saint, and it is common to have old injuries.
At least it can't be seen on the surface at the moment, but Gu Yunjin knows that ten years later, Jiang Muyuan's face is even injured, from the corner of the left eye to the cheekbone, extremely thin, but it is also terrifying.
If this is a few points higher, it will hurt your eyes.
The light in the room dimmed a little, Gu Yunjin took the scissors and dialed the wick, and the oil lamp lit up a little more.
Jiang Muyuan watched her movements, and at this moment, the sound of beating in the alley came, and he realized that it was too late.
"I'm leaving." Jiang Muyuan said in a low voice.
Gu Yunjin didn't hear clearly for a while, turned around and was stunned for a while, before he understood what he said.
Such a reaction made Jiang Muyuan laugh lightly.
He pressed his steps and walked out, and said softly: "I'll let people find Shi Ying's whereabouts, so that she doesn't have any more crooked thoughts, you just have to rest assured." ”
After finishing speaking, he was worried that Gu Yunjin would fall back into his previous low mood, so Jiang Muyuan asked her: "Did you get angry when you beat Yang Xiyu last time?" ”
Gu Yunjin chuckled.
She responded to the Shou'an County Lord to thank Jiang Muyuan in person, but the fire broke out in the alley before she went back, and she forgot about it in a dizzy.
Asked at this time, Gu Yunjin looked at Jiang Muyuan with a smile, and responded: "I'm angry, I'm angry." ”
The girl's family spoke defenselessly, and her eyes were bright.
Almost subconsciously, Jiang Muyuan wanted to rub Gu Yunjin's head, but he didn't remember that something was wrong until he reached halfway through, so he quickly withdrew it, and cleared his throat with his fist, without revealing any clues.
The movement stopped, but the smile spread to the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, and he said, "It's good to be angry." ”
