A Thousand Knots: Chapter 73: Nothing to do with the wind and the moon

Downstairs was waiting for a girl with a slim figure and good looks.

Jun Wushuang glanced at her and asked, "Something?" ”

The girl said shyly and happily, "It's the weekend, and I want to ask you out for a walk." ”

"I have an appointment." Jun Wushuang left with the next sentence, and the girl was so angry that she stomped her feet.

A week later, Xiao Duxue also received a heavy box with only a delivery address on it, not a shipping address. The box contained a variety of reading materials, a hat with excellent wind resistance, and a pair of beautiful gloves that could be worn around the neck. Four words were written on a snow-white letter paper: Gifts are still exchanged. Since that day, she has received a similar box every month: books for the main course and gadgets for dessert. Only once in a while, I sent an oversized ugly doll, and a note was pasted on the door of my head, which read: Your long-lost sister.

Xiao Duxue rolled all over the bed with an ugly doll. One is because she really likes the gift so much, and the other is that she didn't expect that the person who is not interested in anything would be so funny.

Fu Xuefeng had never seen her so happy, and secretly guessed who the person who gave the gift was. Seeing that there was no ambiguity in her smile, she decided that there was nothing between the two, just friends.

The letters you have exchanged have diluted the hardships of the years and made time pass faster. Before I knew it, it was May of the following year.

May in the mountains is similar to February outside the mountains, with cold winds and vegetation. Only the very hardy flowers have buds, waiting to bloom on sunny and warm days.

After Xiao Duxue participated in the interview and preliminary examination of B University, she rushed back non-stop. Cangyang wanted to ask what the result was, but saw that she was so sick that she was almost paralyzed on the ground, so he only brought her a bowl of boiling water.

Originally, students of K Normal University were not eligible to take the preparatory examination for B University. Xiao Duxue wrote a letter to the principal of University B without Chu Xinghe's knowledge, hoping to give herself a chance. After reading the letter and lamenting the courage of the young man, the headmaster did not take the matter to heart. After all, the school has strict admissions principles, and it is impossible to change it easily because of one person.

Chu Xinghe strongly recommended Xiao Duxue to the vice principal and stated the reasons in detail. The reason why he looked for the vice principal instead of the principal was that when the vice principal was just a class teacher, he was her protΓ©gΓ©. Now, he is her right-hand man. He made good use of her trust and friendship, as well as the thirst for talent, to win a chance for Xiao Duxue, who had no chance.

The vice president issued a condition: if Xiao Duxue can pass the preliminary examination and interview, she can participate in the entrance examination for preparatory students of University B; If you pass the exam, you will return to school in July to take the test of professional knowledge and comprehensive ability in the first year of university; If the test results can be ranked in the top 100 of the grade of the Chinese department, you can obtain the qualification of preparatory students and return to B University.

This requirement is at least three levels higher than that of other matriculation students. Chu Xinghe was puzzled. The vice-principal said that if she was only at the level of an average prep student, how could I convince the principal? Chu Xinghe thought so, and didn't say more, only brought more materials and books to Xiao Duxue every week.

Sometimes, studying too late, Xiao Duxue fell asleep with the pen in her hand, and when she woke up, she found herself dressed and lying on the bed, and she was annoyed that she had stayed in the hotel again. Later, such things happened from time to time, and she didn't bother to care. When I was tired, I fell asleep, and I didn't make any more noise to go back.

Chu Xinghe was very satisfied with the change in her attitude, and carefully kept the distance between the two, never exceeding the slightest.

Half a month later, good news came. Xiao Duxue told Zhang Yuhan the news as soon as possible. Zhang Yuhan was not happy, and said in his usual calm voice: What are you proud of, you just passed the preliminary examination and interview. Don't go read a book yet! If you can't pass the exam, you will go back to work as a cram school.

Xiao Duxue covered her mouth and snickered: Obviously she is very happy, but she still has to pretend to be cold with a strained face, tsk!

Fu Xuefeng felt sorry for her reading day and night, but she couldn't help herself, so she could only stop making trouble.

The weather is getting warmer, and the mountain flowers are blooming one after another. Probably because the winter is too long and the snow melts too slowly, and the wait is too long, the flowers here have a sharp and intriguing beauty compared to the flowers outside the mountains.

Every night when I read at night, the river outside the window always refuses to live and rush

Endlessly, moving forward bravely, like a war song on the road to the charge. At night, the distant mountains of blue are towering far away, and when you look closely, they look like paintings embedded in the window lattice. The moonlight is always so clear and translucent, like a bright mirror that wants to shine into the depths of people's hearts. The sky was blue and far away. It's obviously a sky full of stars, but there are very few that can be seen clearly. Those shining stars twinkled with a faint soft light, like lanterns that fireflies extinguished.

If there is no sound of flowing water, when the carriages and horses are put into storage, people and animals sleep peacefully, the night here is very quiet, so quiet that you can hear the intermittent sound of flipping books and the sound of snow melting.

The night is already very deep. Xiao Duxue was busy circling around, flipping through the information and taking notes, and she had no intention of sleeping at all. "Xuefeng, it's time for you to sleep."

"Nope. Waiting for you. ”

"Be good, obedient! Always stay up late with me, you've lost weight. ”

Fu Xuefeng peeled a piece of candy and said, "Sleep." ”

Xiao Duxue casually put the candy in her mouth: "You go to sleep, I'll sleep after reading this." She hadn't read a few pages before a wave of tiredness came at her. She yawned, shook her pen to her desk, and soon fell asleep.

A long, bird-like, crane-like sound came through the cool night breeze of May, and fell into the ears of insomniacs, which was particularly mysterious and terrifying.

Fu Xuefeng's eyebrows were lightly raised, and his expression changed unpredictably. He carried Xiao Duxue to the bed, covered her with the quilt, and went downstairs quietly.

There are no lights, no people, no insects on the streets, only the moonlight is quiet and the waves are like thunder.

When you get out, go straight and turn left to the back street, where there are large areas of wild pepper trees. During this season, the pepper tree flowers have just bloomed, and the unique aroma wafts through the street. The dark green leaves spread out in dense layers under the moonlight, forming a deep inky ocean. The small green flowers in the yellow crowd the branches one after another, like clusters of churning and frolicking small yellow croaker.

Mo Qingyang waited under the tree. He shaved his beard, changed into clean clothes, and was as fresh as a monk: "The eldest lady asked her subordinates to bring you two sentences." First, the position of the head of the Duanmu family will always be yours; Second, a one-year period. ”

Fu Xuefeng pinched the pepper leaf and put it on the end of his nose: "The eldest sister is still so domineering." What if I don't? ”

"According to the temperament of the eldest lady, I'm afraid it will ......"

"She dares." Fu Xuefeng threw away the pepper leaves, and his eyes, which were already without temperature, became more and more cold, "I can follow her for other things, but this is the only thing." If she dares to make a move on Twilight, don't blame me for ignoring my sister's and brother's feelings. ”

"Don't be angry. The eldest lady loves you the most, and she shouldn't ignore your feelings. ”

"She is not allowed to interfere in my business. If she feels sorry for me, don't hurt Twilight. What's the situation at home? ”

"The second young master controls two-thirds of the business, and the rest is under the name of the eldest lady. The second young master repeatedly lobbied the eldest lady to give up her property, but they were all refused. Although the second young master is unwilling, he can't do anything to the eldest lady. ”

"What does the second brother do now?"

"It's the same as the old man was worried about."

Fu Xuefeng was silent. Mo Qingyang accompanied the silence.

Large gray clouds drifted over to obscure the moon, and the earth fell into darkness and silence, only the fragrance of flowers wafting around proved that there was still life in this world.

When the light returned to the world, Fu Xuefeng returned to his usual appearance. "The eldest sister doesn't care, just let him go, as long as he doesn't hurt the innocent. I haven't figured out how I'm going to explain this to Twilight in the future. If she blames ......" he said no more, his expression gloomy.

"You are different from the second young master, you don't have the blood of innocents on your hands, you are all damned people."

"Damn it or not, it's just a different position. A person whose sin is unforgivable in our eyes may seem to others to simply act on orders and not to die. I just hope that in the future she will give me a chance to explain. ”

Mo Qingyang was shocked when he heard this: The eldest lady is really right, the third young master already hates killing, and now because of that girl, he is even more reluctant to get involved in right and wrong. If they are allowed to get along, I am afraid that Madame's hard work will be in vain. ”

Fu Xuefeng said again: "Twilight sometimes comes home late, and I can't be at any time

Follow her for protection. You think of a way to keep her safe. He turned away, his tall figure blurring in the night.

In the afternoon of the next day, there was a tall strange uncle in the tricycle convoy at the back school gate. He is dressed ordinarily, but he has a scholarly temperament, which is extraordinarily different.

The private restaurant next to the car storage place is where Xiao Duxue works. At this time, the diners are full and the seats are full.

Xiao Duxue locked the bicycle and went straight to the proprietress who waved at her.

The proprietress wiped the sweat from her forehead and put a plate of potato cakes fried until golden brown in front of the guests: "I came to help tourists today, but there are not enough people in the store." Can you temporarily work overtime? I know you're busy, but if you look at me here, it's all a pot of porridge. ”

Xiao Duxue agreed, tied her apron casually, beckoned the guests to sit down with a warm smile, served the dishes to the guests, and took the time to help the guests who had just entered the store to order the dishes.

The proprietress clapped her hands and said, "I hired you as a small worker, and I really made a lot of money." One top several. ”

Xiao Duxue smiled: "Then don't you consider giving me a salary increase?" ”

"Well said. When the holiday comes, I'll give you a big red envelope. ”

"Then I'll thank you in advance." Xiao Duxue handed the order to the counter, "Serve tea to the guests at this table, they don't look like they are used to our homemade tea." ”

A blonde foreigner intersects English words in broken Chinese and gestures to the waiter. He said it with great difficulty, and the waiter also had a hard time listening, and finally ended up with one sweating profusely in anxiety and sweating profusely in embarrassment. The diners around looked at the two of them like dioramas, and when they looked back, they didn't know what to ask, so they could only stare at each other, and they couldn't help.

Xiao Duxue went back and forth several times without saying anything, and then saw that the waiter was about to cry, so she couldn't hold back anymore. She greeted her guests graciously and apologized for the inattentive hospitality.

The visitor didn't have much hope for the new waiter, just shook his head and sighed.

Xiao introduced herself in fluent English and repeated his needs.

Encounter old acquaintances in a foreign land! The visitor was ecstatic: "Thank God! Someone finally understands me. They're all stupid! ”

"It's not that they're stupid, it's that their native language isn't English. It's like you're not good at Chinese, but I can't just say you're stupid. ”

"I'm sorry, I was so rude. Excuse me! ”

"It doesn't matter. Everyone here is hospitable and generous. ”

The people who watched the excitement did not see it as lively, but saw that the two were chatting enthusiastically, and suddenly lost interest and refocused on the food.

The meal came up. Xiao Duxue smiled and said, "You eat first." If you need help, just say it. ”

"I want to go to the county seat. Can you tell me where to get there? ”

Xiao Duxue wrote down the route and time on the ordering paper: "It's not as good as a big city, there will be no car after a while, don't miss the time." She pointed to the cloudy sky outside and said, "Look at the weather, I'm afraid it's going to rain again." You eat and take a ride and try to arrive before the rain. This year has been particularly rainy, so don't get too close to the mountains when hiking, and watch out for rockfalls and mudslides. ”

The visitor thanked him, pointed to the camera hanging around his neck and asked, "Can I take a picture of you?" ”

"Take pictures? Shoot me? No need. If you want to shoot, go and shoot our shopkeeper. Xiao Duxue pulled the proprietress over and said with a smile: "He wants to take a photo of you and help you publicize." ”

The proprietress is accustomed to seeing visitors from all over the world, and she is not timid, so she tidied up her appearance and stood under the pomegranate tree in front of the door. At this time, the pomegranate is ready to bud, and the orange-red flower buds are dotted among the emerald green leaves, like small flames burning.

The shutter went off. The proprietress grabbed Xiao Duxue and said, "You can have one too." ”

Xiao Duxue couldn't break free, and it was not good to refuse the enthusiastic eyes behind the camera, so she took off her apron and smiled against the pomegranate tree. Suddenly remembering that he was facing away from the snowy mountain, he subconsciously glanced back: as far as the eye could see, the snow-capped mountain was hidden between the clouds and mist, and it was a faint shadow of a pencil drawing. 2k reading web
