Chapter 17: The Eight Words Don't Match
At this time, it was already the time of the lanterns, and the girls lit the four begonia stone carved street lamps in the courtyard and several exquisitely embroidered lanterns under the corridor, and the faint light was blurred layer by layer, rendering this beautiful courtyard in the south a hazy beauty.
Qin Tian, who was sitting under the courtyard porch, heard the name of Young Master Fang, Miss Fang, so he turned his head and asked Dan'er beside him in a low voice, "Who are Miss Fang and Young Master Fang?" β
Dan'er is younger than her, only 14 years old, born with thin eyebrows and thin eyes, and her eyes are narrowed into a line when she laughs, which is very cute. The character is simple and naΓ―ve, and he has no heart. Ask her anything, and she'll basically say it.
Dan'er lowered her voice and said in Qin Tian's ear, "Miss Fang is the daughter-in-law of the second young master who has not passed the door. It was the baby family set when the master was still alive, the family was originally the landlord of the neighboring county, and then the family fell in the middle of the road, their parents died again, and they were disgusted by the clan, and the wife saw them pitiful, so they simply received it to the house, only to get married and officially become the Zhuang family. β
Qin Tian sighed in his heart, this eldest lady was really kind.
As the two were talking, they saw a man and a woman come in from the door, the woman was seventeen or eighteen years old, with a slender figure, wearing a half-new white background light blue floral gown, and a moon-white fine-folded skirt.
Beside him was a boy about the same age as Qin Tian, a head taller than the woman, with a slender figure, clear eyebrows, and a half-new cross-collared gown, his lips were tightly pursed, revealing a hint of stubbornness.
I think it's the Fang sisters and brothers.
The girls who were originally sitting under the corridor all stood up and respectfully called Miss Fang, Young Master Fang.
Miss Fang smiled at the corner of her mouth and nodded slightly, gentle and gentle, shy and timid. The originally plain appearance has a kind of brilliance because of this gentleness.
At this time, the curtain in the house was lifted, and Yueniang walked out first, followed by Zhuang Xinyan. happened to bump into the Fang sisters and brothers.
The Fang brothers and sisters hurriedly lowered their heads towards Zhuang Xinyan's luggage and called out, "Big young master." "The expression was very respectful.
Zhuang Xinyan replied lightly.
Although his expression was indifferent, the etiquette was considerate. The way siblings also seem to have gotten used to his coldness, and there is no expression of dissatisfaction.
Over there, because Zhuang Xinyan's two girls were beaten, he had to send someone else to follow him back, Yueniang looked at the maids in the yard, first ordered Cuiwei, and then looked at Qin Tian
"Qin Tian, you also go."
Cuiwei and Qin Tian nodded yes.
Zhuang Xinyan just looked ahead indifferently, a pale pink lantern above his head revealed a dissolving light, quietly shining on him, the jet-black hair reflected a faint golden light, but the quiet face was hidden in the shadows, a faint loneliness, a quiet elegance,
It makes people amazing, it makes people feel sorry, and it makes people feel a kind of sour distress in their hearts.
Cuiwei found two lanterns, handed one of them to Qin Tian's hand, and said, "I'll look at the road in front later, you follow behind the young master, the road is dark at night, you have to take care of the young master in the back." β
Qin Tian said yes.
The three of them went out of the courtyard together, Cuiwei in front, Zhuang Xinyan in the middle, and Qin Tian followed behind.
A bright moon hung on the edge of the sky, shining like silver, staining the earth with a layer of hoarfrost.
The three of them walked towards Zhuang Xinyan's courtyard, silent along the way, and the moonlight stretched their shadows very long.
There seemed to be a dark fragrance floating in the air, scattered insect chirping came from nowhere, the breeze blew, the trees on both sides rustled, and the very subtle, very ordinary sound was particularly wonderful in this silent night.
Qin Tian held the lantern and looked at the straight back of Zhuang Xinyan, the faint light of the lantern stained his snow-white robe, making his back have a hint of elegance and mystery.
What is his world really like?
I can't hear any sound, and I'm silent all the time, what kind of feeling is it?
Loneliness is certain, will there be longing? Will there be resentment?
The current indifference may be the result of longing and not being able to get it, resentment and helplessness?
Qin Tian smiled, and suddenly felt that it was strange for him to explore his psychology in this way.
Maybe it's because I've never been in contact with a deaf person, so I'm always a little curious.
That's what she thinks.
Cuiwei in front of him is very careful, and whenever he turns a corner or where the road is narrow, he will shine the lantern there, and turn around to signal Zhuang Xinyan to pay attention.
Mr. Johnson slows down, but never looks back, as if he doesn't know that he's behind him, or doesn't care if he's behind him.
At this time, Zhuang Xinyan avoided a small pit and walked to the right under Cuiwei's prompting, but Qin Tian found that there was a small depression on the road on the right, and if he didn't pay attention to stepping on it, he was afraid that he would lose his balance and fall.
Subconsciously she said, "Young Master, be careful of your right!" β
But as soon as the words came out, I remembered that he couldn't hear at all
Cuiwei in front of her had already turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" β
Seeing that Zhuang Xinyan was about to step on the small depression unconsciously, in a hurry, Qin Tian didn't have time to answer Cuiwei's words, so he stepped forward with an arrow and grabbed Zhuang Xinyan and pushed him to the left. succeeded in keeping him out of this small danger.
But Qin Tian's sudden movements made Zhuang Xinyan a little frightened, he subconsciously waved his hand and threw Qin Tian away, Qin Tian almost only reached his shoulder, where could his body withstand his push, he couldn't stabilize his body at the moment, staggered backwards, just stepped into the small depression, his left foot was crooked, his body completely lost his balance and fell to the side, and fell heavily to the ground
For a while, Qin Tian only felt that her internal organs seemed to be shaken out of place, and she grinned in pain.
The lantern in his hand fell to the ground and went out at once, and Qin Tian's whole person fell into darkness.
"Qin Tian, what's wrong with you?" Cuiwei walked over and shone her with a lantern, and her figure just blocked Zhuang Xinyan's vision.
Zhuang Xinyan stood there, realizing that he had caused the girl to fall, but for a while he couldn't figure out why this happened.
He looked at Qin Tian's side, but saw what the two maids were saying, he couldn't see the maid's face, and he didn't know what she was, he couldn't ask, he couldn't understand what they meant, and it was impossible for him to touch the maid's body as a man. I didn't know what to do for a while, so I could only stand there.
Appears cold and indifferent.
In Qin Tian's eyes, it is still the kind of demeanor that is clear and dusty
Qin Tianbian flattened his mouth
"I'm fine, it's just that my feet are crooked, and I can't get up for the time being, so you can send the eldest young master back first." Qin Tian said to Cuiwei.
Cuiwei nodded, it can only be like this, it is impossible to let the eldest young master wait here all the time.
"Okay, be careful, I'll have someone come and see you later." Cuiwei confessed
"Thank you, Sister Cuiwei." Qin Tian smiled reluctantly.
Cui Wei carried the lantern and walked in front of Zhuang Xinyan again, and Qin Tian's figure fell into darkness again.
Zhuang Xinyan looked at Qin Tian who was trying to get up on the ground, turned his head and saw Cuiwei motioning for him to move forward, he knew that there was already a discussion between them, so he turned around and followed Cuiwei, and after walking a few steps, he couldn't help but look back at Qin Tian.
I only saw Qin Tian's dark figure
Zhuang Xinyan turned his head and continued to walk forward, never looking back.
After they all left, Qin Tiancai slowly got up, and the ankle and neck of his left foot were burning with pain.
She clutched her feet and neck, and the unspeakable feeling in her heart,
Every time I met him, it seemed like this, she jumped for him, but he was so elegant and calm, or he couldn't figure out what was going on at all.
She knew that she couldn't blame him, she volunteered to help him, and he was in this case, and of course she couldn't blame him for being injured.
I just think it's boring......
Qin Tian pouted
"It's okay, it's okay to return it to him, and I will have no arrears with him in the future, and I feel much more comfortable!"
Qin Tian would comfort herself, thinking like this, she felt good in her heart, she smiled, and slowly got up again
It was pitch black all around, far and near, and there were clusters of black shadows, like monsters, as if they would suddenly jump out and engulf her in the next second.
A gust of wind blew, Qin Tian shivered, and seeing that no one had come to look for her, he didn't want to wait any longer, so he walked back with one foot high and one foot low.
Every step is a heart-piercing pain.
Qin Tian gritted his teeth and hated
Every time I meet him, it's not good, this person must be at odds with me! Once I met him, he was defeated once, and I still avoided him from a distance in the future!
The so-called roses are all thorny, and they all contain dangers, which should only be viewed from a distance, not approached
Qin Tian felt that this was really a wise saying!
