CHAPTER XXXVIII
Lu Huai brought me a candy man, I knew he didn't want to make me unhappy, and I didn't think there was any need to be upset by what a liar said.
"I'm fine, I'm just a liar, there's no need for that!"
Lu Huai said that would be good.
We said that we would go to buy lotus lanterns together, but there were many people who bought lotus lanterns today, and the front of the stall was crowded, Lu Huai was originally next to me, and he said that I would wait for him outside, and then take it out for me after buying it. Lu Huai suddenly squeezed into the crowd, and I could barely see him.
I held the candy man in my hand, stood outside the crowd and stretched my neck to look in, I hope Lu Huai can come out quickly, because I always feel that there is someone next to me behind me, and I dare not look back, I am very scared. Suddenly, I touched my pocket: "Where is my hairpin, why is my hairpin missing!" I turned around and saw the man's back fleeing quickly.
Catch the thief, Lu Huai, Lu Huai, help me catch the thief! I was so anxious that I screamed and chased after the thief.
The thief was like a scud, and I couldn't catch up, but then Lu Huai caught up with me, and he said that he would definitely help me find my things. I don't know how Lu Huai pulled out of the crowd all at once, and I don't know how he caught up with me as fast as he could, but when he put his hand on my shoulder and told me that he would definitely help me get my things back, I admitted that I was very moved.
I marveled at how stupid there is anyone in the world.
Lu Huai chased in front, and I ran behind, running all the way and shouting, "Catch the thief, catch the thief!" "I made my way through the fire-breathing crowd and knocked off the plate that someone else was carrying.
When I ran, I didn't care about the road, and when I walked up the stone bridge, my feet were a little weak, "Catch the thief, catch the ...... Thief ......"
"Pound!" I seemed to bump into a person, I was really tired, I sweated a lot, according to Lang Zhong, that is, the cold in the body was too heavy, if it was a person I knew, I would definitely get into his arms and let him drag me away. Leaning on his arms, I actually smelled a burst of sandalwood incense, and I looked up in a trance.
That person is also looking at me, he is also alone, and his eyes that used to shine are now a little godless, this is not like Chu Muxiu. I avoided it even though I was tired, and I wasn't one to take advantage.
"How are you alone?"
"Aren't you alone?" I asked him angrily.
"Just now...... You say catch a thief, your stuff is stolen? β
"Nope!" I had sharp teeth, and I thought to myself, isn't the biggest thief in this city standing in front of me?
He was finally speechless, perhaps for the first time he was speechless. But I was so nervous in my heart that I was going to die, I suddenly began to believe in the fortune teller just now, sure enough, the road is narrow, and I have a bloody disaster, but a little earlier.
Lu Huai panted and ran over to see Chu Muxiu was not very surprised, he first visited Chu Muxiu, and then put the hairpin in front of me: "I thought you lost something important, isn't it just a wooden hairpin, I chased the thief all the way, maybe just a wooden hairpin is not worth a few dollars, and then he actually threw it away himself and ran away." β
I took the wooden hairpin and quickly put it in my pocket, because I was afraid that Chu Muxiu would see it, and I knew that he had actually seen it, and he had seen it a lot. My face is probably lost again, the disaster of blood, the disaster of blood......
"By the way, Your Highness, why are you here alone, Qianche's guards?" Lu Huai asked Chu Muxiu.
"Oh, he's in trouble!"
I muttered quietly, "I don't know if it's really something or if people just don't want to ...... it."
"Huh?" Lu Huai asked me what I said, and I shook my head and said I didn't say anything.
"Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go." I looked at Chu Muxiu and felt unhappy, so I pulled Lu Huai and was about to leave.
"Your Highness, we'll take our leave first!" Lu Huai was dragged by me, and he turned back vigorously to say goodbye to Chu Muxiu.
I don't know what the expression on Chu Muxiu's face was when I turned around, but after I walked a few steps, I decided to look back at him. He was still standing on the bridge, and at his feet was the Ming Lake, and the surface of the lake was full of glowing lotus lanterns placed by others; Behind him was a bustling crowd of people with colorful fireworks on his head, and he probably didn't know how beautiful the fireworks were when they broke up on his head. But his eyes were so resentful and even godless, and the first time he looked at me like that, no one had ever looked at me like that. Tonight seemed to others to be a very beautiful and joyful night, but I always felt a little bleak.
Later, Lu Huai pulled me, and I turned around and left. In fact, if Chu Muxiu had stayed or called me at that time, I thought I would have turned my head and ran over, but he didn't call me until I walked into the crowd. I've always been wishful thinking, and maybe he's just as uneasy as I am now, because he doesn't know how to deal with it, so in the end we both choose to run away.
Finally, there was a time when I turned around first, and finally one day it was Chu Muxiu who looked at my back......
Lu Huai bought lotus lanterns, and we walked to the lake to put the lanterns. Lu Huai asked me what I had made to the Weaver Girl, and I pouted: "If you say it, it won't work, don't hurt me!" β
"Okay, okay, I don't want to be a sinner."
Later, it was late at night, and the streets were not so lively, but there were lotus lanterns on the bright lake, and each lotus lantern carried their dreams and flowed into the distance.
Lu Huai sent me to the door and then went home, when I went back, Mo'er was looking for me, I said that Lu Huai called me out to play, I said that her mouth was curled after I finished speaking, complaining about why I didn't take her out with me, I lied to her and said that in fact, it was not fun outside at all, Lu Huai and I listened to Mr. Storyteller in the tea shop for a night, and then Mo'er was not angry, but in turn sighed that it was fortunate that he did not follow.
I went back to the house, took the hairpin out of my pocket and touched it, I was glad that the hairpin did not go wrong, I thought my most precious thing was the jade bracelet that my father gave me, but I only now knew that the most precious thing in my heart turned out to be a wooden hairpin, I felt that I was a little unfilial.
A few days later, the osmanthus flowers in the yard bloomed, and my mood also got better, I occasionally picked some osmanthus flowers and put them in the yard to dry, and then got up early to collect the first dew, the tea made by the osmanthus has a long fragrance, it is even sweeter than the pear wine in the drunken fairy house, I dangled in the yard every day, and then did not go out again.
I sat by the window and drank osmanthus tea that night, it was already a little late, and Mo'er had already returned to her room. I thought that if Chu Muxiu came to me now, and then said a few good words and then begged me, I might forgive him as soon as my heart softened, but he always didn't know what to do.
I got up and was about to close the window and go to bed, and when I closed a window, I saw it, and I saw the man standing on the roof, and it seemed that I was going to forgive him, the plague of blood, the plague of bloodlight......
I looked at him, and he stood firmly on the roof, as if no amount of wind could blow him half a minute, and I didn't think he was at all interested in that, so I prepared to close another window.
"Ding......
My God, I didn't expect Chu Muxiu to poke into the crack of the window with a sword, scaring me so much that I fell to the ground half to death, I couldn't help screaming, in fact, the fall didn't hurt most of the time I was scared by Chu Muxiu.
I sat on the ground rubbing my waist and twisting my buttocks, and Chu Muxiu jumped in to help me: "You, it's okay!" β
He paused as he spoke, perhaps a little weak-hearted, and I brushed his hand away: "Do you think it's okay?" β
Chu Muxiu was really not an ordinary person, a sword was inserted without hesitation, did he think that everyone was an enemy who violated him? Did he think his knife would come in handy at any time?
I stood up and tried to hold back the breath in my heart: "What are you doing so late?" β
Chu Muxiu paused again: "I, I'm here to apologize to you, but I want to drive you away indiscriminately when you saved Jin'er that day, I heard that you have been sick for a long time after you go back, and I can't help it!" β
"I volunteered to save Jin'er, and I told you, I'm in good health, you don't have to worry about not going, you don't have to worry about it, I won't rely on you, it's getting late, I'm going to sleep, you go quickly, you go quickly......" I said while pushing Chu Muxiu out.
"Then don't you blame me?"
I didn't speak, in fact, I still didn't completely forgive him in my heart, because of his words I have been sick for a few months, I have been sad for a few months, and I have been incomprehensible for a few months, I really don't want to forgive him so easily, so it seems that I am particularly easy to bully.
He may have read my thoughts, too, and he hasn't spoken for a long time.
"Then will you go to the palace to find me in the future?"
I looked up: "Maybe...... Not really. β
Chu Muxiu probably didn't expect that I would be as ruthless as him, but he still struggled in place: "Then, then you take care." β
I nodded again.
He walked to the window, and I think he must be a little sad.
I looked over: "Maybe you can coax me once, just like when I was a kid when I was angry with Daddy for coaxing me." β
He turned around and smiled, but at that moment he put away his smile: "I have never coaxed others, let alone others." β
I felt that what I said was indeed a bit far-fetched to Chu Muxiu, and I looked at the window and happened to see the osmanthus in the courtyard: "Otherwise, you can accompany me to watch the sunset." β
"It's better to read the book of soldiers than to watch the sunset!"
"You go!"
I thought that I had given Chu Mu enough steps down, but he never appreciated it. I don't even know who is paying for it today, it's obviously his fault, but I've been keeping my voice down.
"It's getting late today, wait until tomorrow!"
I was delighted and nodded again.
They say I'm naΓ―ve, but I think I'm stupid, I'm so deceitful, just like tonight, Chu Muxiu almost forgave him in two words. Actually, I think it was beyond my expectation that he could come by himself, he came very late, he must have thought about it for a long time and made a lot of determination.
Actually, it's not easy, I never thought about so many things before, but now I can always put myself in other people's situations and think about it, and sigh......
I maybe, really sensible.
