Chapter 107: A large box of pear paste candy
"Happy? Niantong, you don't understand, when I saw him, my eyes were full of fear... I am afraid, the scene of separation twenty years ago is vivid. Yan Yan sighed and shook his head, "Okay, you can count on it, I have fulfilled my wish all these years, perhaps, this short period of time, has redeemed my thoughts over the years." ”
"Master, Yuheng loves you so much, I think... If you try again, maybe you can go back to 20 years ago. ”
"What's the point of going back?" Yan Yan turned around and held her hand, "Nian Tong, you have to know that you will not cherish the people who are happy now, and you will not be happy in the future." ”
Nian Tong was stunned, but what flashed in his mind was Tang Xi's face.
Yan Yan looked at her thoughtful expression and gently touched her hair: "I know, you did this with good intentions, and I also know that Yuheng and I are each other in our hearts, but I think that everything can't go back to the past, it's better to live alone." ”
"I see, master... Then, I'll send you back to Huashan, right? ”
"No, you're here, and there's a lot to do. There are also important things to deal with on Huashan, and I have been here for a day, so I should go back first. You have to be careful in everything, you know? ”
Yan Yan's soothing of her was like her mother's mother, she had never felt her mother's care since she was a child, and she was suddenly very moved, and her tears kept flowing.
After sending Yan Yan away, Nian Tong and Tang Xi returned to Wanjun Mansion, and along the way, Nian Tong was a little sullen, thinking about what Master Yan Yan said. Tang Xi saw it in his eyes, but he didn't know how to comfort him.
Nian Tong returned to Wanjun Mansion, and happened to meet Qu Yi, Qu is still happy at the moment, and thinking about the handmade gift that Ji Sheng gave her, seeing Nian Tong, and thinking of being seen by Ji Sheng Those medicinal materials, she was a little sluggish all of a sudden, and then pulled Nian Tong into her room.
"Niantong, I'm going to tell you something, but! You have to promise that you will never hit me..."Qu said flatteringly.
Nian Tong asked curiously, "What's the matter?" Makes you so nervous..."
"I... I forgot to throw those herbs away......"
"What herbs?" Nian Tong hadn't reacted yet.
"It's the Tianshan Snow Lotus..."
Nian Tong was stunned, and then asked, "Who saw it?" Could it be Tang Xi, probably not, he was just with me, and he didn't have any special reaction... Could it be a Jisheng? ”
"Yes... He came into my room, and I had just come back from your parting years, and he saw the package I was still on the floor. Qu still looked very apologetic.
“... So, does he know who I am? Nian Tong asked.
"I don't know, he asked me, I didn't say, but he must have guessed a little, but don't worry." Qu still held Niantong's hand, "I told him not to tell others, and he agreed." ”
"Hey..."Nian Tong sighed, "I know I can't hide this, and now Ashkun probably guessed a little, Jisheng is so smart, he must know it." I just hope that Tang Xi doesn't know, otherwise, he will definitely dismantle me..."
"Tang Xi also cares about you, you are so afraid that he will know, isn't it because he cares about you the most?" Qu still said.
"Well," Nian Tong said, "still, you know, today, I feel that I have done a bad thing with good intentions. ”
Nian Tong told Qu Yi the ins and outs of Yan Yan and Yuheng's affairs, and Qu still felt very sorry.
"However, I think that master of yours, what she said is not wrong, it is difficult to reunite after breaking the mirror, not to mention that it has been twenty years, cherishing the present is really the most important thing." Qu still said.
As he spoke, there was a knock on the door.
Tang Xi's voice came: "Nian Tong, come out." ”
Nian Tong was a little surprised, but immediately responded and walked out.
"Where are you taking me...?" Nian Tong asked strangely, a little scared in her heart, always worried that he would say something like last time, which would overwhelm her.
"You'll know when you go." Tang Xi took her to the small bridge and flowing water of Wanjun Mansion, and Nian Tong saw a big box on the table, which was made of bamboo and wood.
"What is this...?" Nian Tong asked.
Tang Xi scratched his head a little embarrassed: "I saw that you were sullen when you came back just now, I know that you must be very uncomfortable because of Elder Yan Yan and Yuheng's affairs, I don't know how to comfort you, I remembered that I saw a lot of pear paste candy that you like to eat on the way back just now, I went to the street to buy a big box of pear paste candy when you were talking to her in Qu Yi's room, you know, if you are not happy to eat something sweet, you will be happy..."
Nian Tong was a little moved, and there was a little choking in his throat, but he still said with disgust: "You bought so much, who can finish eating, I'm afraid I haven't finished eating, the pear paste candy will be broken, you may be hoping that I will be unhappy every day, or you want me to have tooth decay..."
"Not really." Tang Xi said anxiously, his helpless appearance made Nian Tong feel a little like laughing, after all, he was also a dignified seven-foot man, and the nervous appearance in front of him at the moment made her laugh.
"Then, I'll take it, thank you, master." Nian Tong opened the lid of the box, picked up a piece of pear paste candy, opened the layers of packaging on it, and a sweet taste greeted him.
"You don't have to say thank you to me." Tang Xi looked at her smiling stupidly, you don't know, your happiness is the best reward for me.
It's just that the happiness of the moment is so short-lived, how ordinary, so longing, and so unattainable.
In the evening, what Nian Tong had been worried about for a long time finally came. Xing Yan's death, since she wrote a letter to Xu Yungui last time, has not been followed, today, back in the room, Nian Tong saw the letter sent by the carrier pigeon, landed on the window, her eyelids jumped, and went over to take the letter.
"In a few days, you'll go back to Red Sleeves Villa."
In just a few words, Niantong's body couldn't help but tremble, she frowned, and felt that the pill in her body was like a *. Although, she knew it was just a psychological effect.
She is in the Red Sleeve Villa, in addition to rescuing Yi Yang, there is one more thing that has not been completed.
So, she had to go back.
However, she also knew that this time, there was no other reason or excuse, which was equivalent to admitting to everyone that she had indeed taken refuge in the Red Sleeve Villa.
She sighed deeply.
After two days of dull days, Ashkun finally came back, he was dusty, his face was pale and terrible, Niantong and Qu were still eating pastries, and they were shocked to see him like this.
"Master, you're back! Why do you have such a bad face..."Nian Tong greeted him.
"I got Muyun's blood." Ashkun said simply.
"It's... Did my father fight him? ”
"I exchanged blood with him. Now, can you go and save Guo Lili? ”
"Master, you are not in good health now, let Jisheng and Qu still go, you go to rest first, Master Chestnut will definitely not wake up for a while, you have to take care of your spirits and take care of her again, what do you say?" Nian Tong turned his head to Qu and said, "Still, you go to Jisheng, I'll help my father go to rest first." ”
Ashkun wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't, he thought carefully about what Nian Tong said, it did make sense, and he also believed that Ji Sheng and Qu were still.
Nian Tong helped Ashkun and asked, "Can you tell me what happened?" ”
"I found Mu Yun in Tingfeng Village, he saw me, I was very surprised, I didn't want to take his life, I wanted his blood, he knew that I wanted his blood to save Guo Lili, I thought I was going to waste my lips and tongue, but I didn't expect it, he agreed, I asked him what he needed, he said, if I want, I can exchange my blood with him."
"Swap? Why, master, what is the use of your blood? ”
"I have taken poison since I was a child, and my blood is resistant to all kinds of poisons, and it can also save people." Ashkun said.
Nian Tong got goosebumps: "I've been taking poison since I was a child... Master, why did he agree? Killing Master Chestnut was originally their goal, although he may not know that his brother Xingyan died at your hands, but he won't agree to it..."
"Perhaps, the kindness of chestnut to them at the beginning made his conscience find, right? I didn't have time to think about it so much, and when I saw his blood with my own eyes, I rushed back. ”
Nian Tong's face sank, this matter must not be so simple, but she couldn't think of what went wrong.
The matter here is almost settled, and when Master Chestnut wakes up, it will be time to return to the Red Sleeve Villa, she thought.
Everything, wait until the Red Sleeves Villa, she will go to investigate.
After Ashkun rested, Niantong walked alone in Wanjun Mansion to relax, she knew that Jisheng and Qu would still definitely save Master Chestnut, she didn't have to worry, but she was just very sad, as if she couldn't sigh helplessly.
Tang Xi didn't know when he appeared by her side.
"I gave you pear paste candy, finished eating?"
"Nope." Nian Tong shook his head.
"Then why are you still so unhappy?" Tang Xi asked.
"Life is short, but there are many times when it's bitter, and besides, there's no way to get rid of the sweetness of sugar, isn't it?" Nian Tong looked at him with a smile.
Tang Xi thought for a while and said, "Then I'll take you to see the stars, right?" ”
Without waiting for Niantong to agree, Tang Xi took her hand and ran out. Niantong said "hey" several times, and suddenly she didn't want to refuse, she was about to go back to the Red Sleeve Villa, and when the time came, everything was wrong, and she was afraid that she would never be able to go back to the past. Just let yourself indulge once. Besides, it's not the first time I've seen the stars with him.
She suddenly remembered that at that time, he had a fight with Yun Weichen, jumped out of her window with an injury, and then, he also pulled himself out without saying anything like now. Thinking of this, the corners of her mouth inadvertently hooked into a smile.
