Chapter 46 Sugar Gourd Love
That night, Gu Jiming sent Jiang Cailing home, and the semi-circular moon hung in the air, like a jade jue, like a token of love with a lover, half of one person.
Tonight, no one slept early in Luoyang City, and everyone waited for the result, until the news came from the palace: Nanzhu, the maid beside Princess Nanzhao, was ashamed of her virtue, and she was afraid that the princess would find out that the matter was exposed, so she killed the princess. Now he has confessed his guilt and died on the pillar.
The moonlight was shining, and Jiang Cailing was not ready to go back, so that she sat in Gu Jiming's blue auspicious cloud soft sedan chair.
Gu Jiming's sedan chair is a single sedan chair, which is not spacious, Jiang Cailing is already attached to the sedan chair body, but as the sedan chair driver walks, he will still touch Gu Jiming's body.
Neither of them is a person of many words, except for the shallow breathing sound of the two, the already small space is even more quiet and terrifying.
Jiang Cailing has been pretending to look outside the curtain, but at this time, the merchants in Luoyang City have already closed their stalls, and the black lights are blind, and there is nothing to see. And rolling in along the car window, the cold wind blew and made her cheeks cold, Jiang Cailing put down the curtain of the car, looked at the person next to her, and found that Gu Jiming was closing her eyes at this time, so she boldly turned her head to the side and looked at Gu Jiming.
"Ling'er, is it good-looking?"
As he spoke, Gu Jiming's eyes suddenly opened, and his bright black eyes were like stars in the sky in the middle of the night, burning so much that people lost their minds.
Jiang Cailing hurriedly looked away, her cheeks didn't know if they were blown by the north wind or what, she felt a little hot, and changed the topic, "How did Gu Xiang know that Nanzhu was the murderer?" ”
"Benxiang just accidentally discovered Nanzhu in Luoshui, and Ling'er was too worried."
It seems that something has happened in front of him, the coachman shouted "Adults sit firmly" and then stopped the sedan car urgently, Jiang Cailing was unsuspecting, and fell into Gu Jiming's arms with the deviation of the sedan body, Gu Jiming looked slender, but he didn't expect that the strong and stiff chest was very strong, like a rock, and the bones on her body were like falling apart.
A warm palm fell on her shoulder, her slender fingers supported her, and a low voice came from her ear, making the tip of her ear to the tip of her heart numb, "Did it hurt?" ”
"Poof, poof!"
The sound of heartbeat came, like the drumbeat of the battle in front of the army, short and powerful, like the sound of spring thunder, which could pierce the eardrums.
In the small space, Jiang Cailing couldn't tell if it was her own heartbeat or the other party's for a while.
"I don't know who actually dug a ditch in the middle of the road, my lord, Miss He is okay, right?" The voice of the sedan chair man came, and Jiang Cailing was shocked to wake up from her stunned state, supported herself on the soft seat, and left Gu Jiming's chest.
"No problem."
As soon as Gu Jiming's words fell, the sedan chair was lifted again, and Jiang Cailing's body that had just sat firmly was carried forward coldly, and just when Jiang Cailing felt that she was going to fly out of the sedan chair, a pair of powerful arms were across her chest, preventing her from flying out of the sedan chair.
The famous ladies and nobles who have not left the cabinet in the Great Zhou Dynasty have the habit of binding their breasts, Jiang Cailing followed her parents since she was a child and was later bought into the palace, and no one told her that she had to bind her breasts, so she did not develop such a habit, and after the softness of her chest was hit by the powerful arm, there was an unspeakable pain, and she couldn't help but hum.
In the dark, the eyes cannot see clearly, so the sense of hearing and touch is very sensitive.
I heard a light hum in my ears, like a soft tail sound that was painful but more delicate than eating pain, and there was a soft touch on my arm, which was softer than cotton, but it was too elastic than cotton, Gu Jiming had never felt such a touch, and there was a smell of orchids between his noses, and he thought of something, so he withdrew his hand and whispered between his lips and teeth, "I'm sorry." ”
If the moonlight had come in, the two would have seen each other's ears glow red like boiled shrimp......
The bright moon is not frightening, and the wind is fragrant.
On the second day, the light reflected by the water blue soft gauze curtain was very bright, the copper wire heater coal had been burned overnight and now it had burned out, and there was a slight cold in the house, Jiang Cailing walked to the window with a soft rabbit fur cloak, opened the curtain, and found that there were snowflakes falling in the sky, falling on the ground in a thin layer, and it turned into snow after a while.
This is the first snow since the beginning of winter in Luoyang City, Jiang Cailing held the hot tea cup in her hand, took a shallow sip, and the warm tea entered her mouth, passed through her throat to her stomach, and her body also gave birth to warmth.
"Girl!" Bai He's energetic voice came, wearing this apricot pink gown and holding two sugar gourds in his hands.
The red hawthorn hangs with sugar, as if it is frozen, crystal clear, each hawthorn is sprinkled with evenly this white sesame seed, just looking at it can imagine the sweet and sour taste of the sugar gourd when it enters the mouth, which makes people mouthful.
Bai He handed one of them to Jiang Cailing's hand, "I bought it when I asked Aunt Wu to buy vegetables, it's sweet." ”
I took a bite, and my lips were stained with rock sugar, sweet and sour, especially delicious, "Father and mother are awake?" ”
"I've already woken up, and I've asked the slave not to wake up the girl so that you can sleep a little longer. After breakfast, the old man accompanied his wife to go up the mountain to make a vow, in order to let the girl survive this catastrophe safely, Mrs. asked God to worship the Buddha and eat vegetarian scriptures these days, and the scriptures copied and copied were already one person high. ”
Jiang Cailing sighed from the corners of her eyes, how lucky she was in this life to be able to meet parents like He Mingshan and Meng Yun who cherished her.
I still remember when I was a child, sugar gourd was a very luxurious thing for myself, and it was already a gift to fill my stomach.
The first time I ate sugar gourd was when she was sixteen years old, her parents bought new clothes for the first time and dressed her up beautifully.
The girl didn't like to be pretty and clean, and when she looked in the mirror, she vaguely heard her father say, "If I had known, it would have been worth the more expensive price." ”
Jiang Cailing thought that she didn't care about the harvest in the field. After a family of four went to the street and had a meal in an elegantly decorated private room, the mother held a string of bright red sugar gourds and smiled very kindly, "Cai Ling, haven't you always wanted to eat sugar gourds, my father and mother are going to a nearby commercial bank to do something, you are waiting for us here." ”
"Okay."
Then her mother took her brother's hand and walked away, Jiang Cailing sat in such a beautiful place for the first time, ate such delicious things, saw such a beautiful scenery, and waited for her parents to come back to pick her up.
The warm water in the pot was empty, Jiang Cailing carried the kettle and went outside to find water to drink, and suddenly heard a quarrel sound, Jiang Cailing looked for the sound, and saw a thin and small young man in Chinese clothes being kicked and beaten by a group of young men in cloth, his face was covered with blood and dust.
"Aren't you the eldest young master! Is it so hard to give us poor people money? ”
"Young master, you kid killed your parents! Look at the color of his eyes, it's different from us, frustrated! ”
"I heard that he is not Madame's biological child at all, but the affair of his father and the cousin of the Qinglou! It's a mongrel born to a female cousin! ”
The young man's eyes were full of stubbornness, his face was full of dust, only a pair of amber eyes were exceptionally bright, anger flashed in his raised eyes, and he shouted "Don't talk about my mother", and then pounced on the opponent's body like a tiger, and all the movements of his hands fell on the opponent's face, leaving traces of bruises and purples.
"Help, save me, kill him-"
I heard my partner help, and in one of the young men in cloth took a stone the size of a bowl and threw it at the boy's forehead.
It's going to kill you!
Jiang Cailing has been doing rough work since she was a child, and she has a lot of strength, so she rushed out from behind the pillar and protected the boy, stretched out her hand to block it, and her wrist was hung off by a stone, and she kicked the person opposite in pain, and the carefully braided braids also fell apart.
"This crazy girl is so strong!" The little fat man who was kicked in the corner of the wall said with a sad face.
"You're lucky, boy!"
Then the five cloth-clothed children limped away, leaving Jiang Cailing and the little child behind.
Jiang Cailing saw that the young man was injured, looked down at the sugar gourd, and said bitterly, "This is the best thing I have ever tasted, do you want to taste it?" ”
Seeing that the boy lowered his head and didn't speak, those children just now said that the boy's parents had died, and they thought that the boy must be very sad, and she at least had her parents by her side. So he pouted, put the sugar gourd that had bitten half on the top into his mouth, squatted down and forcibly stuffed the bamboo stick into the young man's hand, coaxing the young man and said gently, "Okay, it's all for you, I only ate one!" The sugar gourd is really delicious, don't believe you to taste it. ”
The young man finally raised his head, his face was covered with blood and dust, and he couldn't see his true face, only a pair of amber eyes were picked up at the end of his eyes, he looked at Jiang Cailing, then looked at the sugar gourd in his hand, and lowered his head to bite the sugar gourd.
After a long time, he whispered, "Thank you." ”
That day, Luoyang City was also floating with a snowflake, the two teenagers and girls talked a lot, a sugar gourd was also eaten clean by you and me, and the teenager also pulled Jiang Cailing to the nearby millennium locust tree to make a wooden box, which contained a note written on their dreams and the bamboo stick, until the people in the boy's mansion came to look for it, and the two hurriedly buried the box, separated on the spot, and made an appointment to meet again tomorrow.
Su Qingcheng was walking on the road at this time, wearing a red brocade coat and a white mink fur cloak, which caused the girl to turn back frequently in Luoyang City.
Spread out your palms, and feel the falling snowflakes in your palms, turning into a drop of water.
"Sell sugar gourds!" The cries rang out on the side of the road, as the snow melted in his heart.
Su Qingcheng raised a smile on his lips, remembering that ten years ago, he met a girl, she said that the sugar gourd was very sweet, and he didn't like sweets, but he still took a bite, and it was sour and astringent compared to the sugar gourd made by the chef of his prime house, and anger gradually rose in his eyes, thinking that she was deliberately entertaining him, but when he raised his eyes, he saw the girl swallowing saliva greedily.
Fortunately, ten years later, he met the girl again, in his house, just as he did at the beginning.
