The night was so dark that I couldn't see my fingers, and the lights around Jiangcheng's "Drinking Water and Thinking of the Source" study were extinguished one after another. There was an instant silence all around, with the occasional sound of barking dogs and the footsteps of night walkers. In the sky, the scattered stars blink their eyes, peeking at the ups and downs of the world. It adds to the incredible mystery of the silent night!

At this moment, in this "drinking water and thinking of the source" study, there is only one window that reveals the dim and dim light of Songmingzi, which is so small and lonely under the hazy shroud of the middle of the night! However, it stubbornly burns its body, illuminates those who need it, and warms people's hearts. To the night that ruthlessly devours it, and strive to fight for the dignity and value of his existence!

This "Drinking Water Siyuan Study" is a five-room small tiled house made of blue bricks glued with mud and water slurry. The one in the middle is a little larger, and it is usually reserved as a "lecture hall" for teaching. The easternmost room is the kitchen, and behind the kitchen is a small cloak room reserved for the washroom. The westernmost one is the latrine.

At this moment, Wang Jinhua and Li Yunlong placed thirty small benches and three long tables together, and the two of them cleaned up a clean space and laid a wide wooden plank. On top of the planks was a thick mat made of straw and hemp rope, on which was placed an old quilt. Pull up a cotton cushion and put a new quilt and a floral pillow. A floor shop is considered "done"!

Then, Li Yunlong took out two buckets of water from the kitchen on the west side and placed them next to Songmingzi. He sat on the floor under Songmingzi, picked up a copy of the Analects and read the "Chapter on Politics": Zi said: "For politics and virtue, such as Beichen, live in its place and all the stars are together." Zi said: "Three hundred poems, in a word, say: 'Thinking is innocent'." Zi said: "The way is to govern, and all are punished, and the people are free and shameless." The way is virtuous, all are courteous, shameful and qualified. ”－－－－

Wang Jinhua followed closely behind and brought out a basin of soaked clothes, took a small bench and sat next to Song Mingzi, and buried her head in scrubbing the clothes that the two had changed----

This situation and this scene made Li Yunlong can't help but think: After coming to Jiangcheng for more than 20 days, after dinner every night, Wang Jinhua, who manages the accounts in the "Hengshun Hotel" during the day, is always busy washing clothes without complaint, or embroidering on the side to accompany him to study.

After the clothes were washed, Wang Jinhua would pick up the embroidery shed and start embroidering. It wasn't until the wall clock on the wall struck the twenty-first "poof, poof, poof" that he raised his head and said, "Brother Long, it's already nine o'clock." It's time for us to rest!

Li Yunlong can't forget: Once, in his sleep, when he remembered that the two brothers of the hateful Yue Mansion wantonly bullied the people of the Li Mansion, he angrily tore up the quilt. That night, Wang Jinhua silently threaded the needle and thread to make up for these tatters. It wasn't until he raised his head after doing all this that he looked at him and said with a smile: Brother Long, everything has been made up. It's all right!

Li Yunlong firmly remembered: Once, in a dream, he remembered his mother in the Li Mansion, and was looking forward to his return to the house with tears in his eyes. His eyes couldn't help but moisten, and soon the pain in his heart caused him to whimper with tears in his eyes.

About half a cup of tea, the door was pushed open, Wang Jinhua came out of the inner room with Song Mingzi in his hand, stood in front of his floor and asked with concern: Brother Long, what's wrong? Hurry up and tell my sister about it!

Li Yunlong choked up and said: Sister Jinhua, we remembered that the mother in my hometown stood at the gate of the mansion and turned to the west, covering the sun with her hands and looking at the streets of the town. Shaking his head and sighing, he said, Oh, why don't you see our three boys?

As he spoke, Li Yunlong's tears squeezed out of his eyes and flowed down his cheeks. Wang Jinhua would hug him and pat him on the back and say: Brother Long, although "men don't flick when they have tears". However, my sister wants to tell you that if you want to cry, cry happily. Cry out the pain in your heart, and your heart will no longer be depressed!

Thinking of this, Li Yunlong couldn't help but put down the "Analects" he was reading in his hand, took Wang Jinhua's hand that was washing clothes, and said sincerely: Sister Jinhua, I am really thanks to your company these days. Please be worshiped by Brother Long!

As he spoke, Li Yunlong bent down and knelt down to the righteous sister in front of him. Wang Jinhua was so anxious that she stretched out her leg against his knee, and grabbed his arm with one hand and dragged it up. Hurriedly said: Brother Long, the man has gold under his knees. What's more, what we're doing is just a little thing. It's not enough to worry about it at all! You're really tormenting me by doing this. In the future, you must not mention this again!

Li Yunlong blurted out: Sister Jinhua, if you don't have your company. I'm sure I'm going to be a starving ghost! Even if we are lucky enough not to die, then we will definitely suffer from "depression". Sister really doesn't need to be too humble!

Hearing this, Wang Jinhua blushed and said: Brother Long, in fact, I say goodbye to my father. When you left the palace and came here, I just wanted to cook and do laundry for our sister in a small way. So you can save time and read more books! You will participate in the "palace test" held by the imperial court in the spring of next year, if you can "win the gold list", then our sister's happy life will begin!

When Li Yunlong heard this, he said indignantly: Sister Jinhua, Sister Yinfeng is so vicious to you. You really don't need to think about her everywhere anymore! For a "selfish" person, your kindness is actually worthless. It's time for you to plan for your future thoroughly!

Wang Jinhua said with a wry smile: Brother Long, my sister's future has long been doomed, that is, to be the aunt and wife of Wan Qilin. In this life, we can't decide our own destiny! But you have to put up with Sister Yinfeng in the future, don't let her feel aggrieved. No matter how willful she is, my sister asks you to "look at the face of the Buddha without looking at the monk's face". Thinking on the thin side of us and Daddy, don't forget not to worry about her!

Hearing this, Li Yunlong couldn't help but pull Wang Jinhua's arms and shake them and said: Sister Jinhua, things haven't come to the last moment of "you put on the red Xipa". Either way, there is still the possibility of change. Brother, please don't "accept your fate"!

When Wang Jinhua heard this, after a wry smile, she said helplessly: Brother Long, you don't know anything. All the family members in the entire palace have no ability to compete with Wan Qilin's eight martial arts masters. We really can't bear to watch Daddy and Sister Feng being persecuted by these people in the slightest!

Speaking of this, Wang Jinhua turned to Li Yunlong and said in a deep voice: Brother Long, the most important thing is that your fate has doomed you to be a lonely boy. If, let you be tortured by ten thousand unicorns in our palace because of my affairs. So, can I still be considered a human being?

Wang Jinhua couldn't help but sigh again, her eyes stayed on Li Yunlong's face solemnly, and she said helplessly: Brother Long, if we are allowed to face all our relatives, we will be persecuted by Wan Qilin because of me. I'm sure I'm going to feel like "life is better than death"!

At this moment, Li Yunlong really wanted to tell Wang Jinhua about the plan he had set with his father-in-law. However, he also understood: with her gentle and kind personality, if she knew that he and her father-in-law's plan were the core intention of Yinfeng's sister. Now, she definitely won't be here in peace. She would definitely rush back to the palace in a hurry to ask her father, his stepfather, why did he treat Sister Yinfeng like this?

So, Li Yunlong finally restrained his excitement and found an excuse to say: Sister Jinhua, what the little brother said just now is just what we said in our hearts. However, with Yinfeng's sister's arrogant and domineering personality, she will definitely only regard your kindness as a "donkey's liver and lungs". Little brother sincerely hopes that you will "think twice"!

As he spoke, Li Yunlong pretended to be extremely sleepy and stood up, yawned and rubbed his temples and said, "Sister Jinhua, I feel sleepy now. We want to lie down and sleep, you better stop doing laundry tonight. Let's go back to bed!

Hearing this, Wang Jinhua was extremely surprised and asked Li Yunlong: Brother Long, it is only past seven o'clock at this time. In the past, you always read until after 9 o'clock before going to bed, do you feel uncomfortable? Do you need us to hire someone for you?

Li Yunlong hurriedly shook his head and said, "Sister Jinhua, we just feel sleepy and want to sleep." Actually, our physical fitness is fantastic. Don't think about it!

As soon as Wang Jinhua heard it, she said: Brother Long, since you are extremely sleepy. So, let's get up early tomorrow and do the laundry. Okay, I'll listen to you. I'm going to sleep!

As she spoke, Wang Jinhua picked up the laundry tub and put it in the corner. He turned to look at Li Yunlong again and said, "Brother Long, shouldn't it be because it's not easy for the two of us to "support ourselves" here. I'm going to endure the feeling of physical discomfort and not go to Lang Zhong to see a doctor, right?

Seeing Li Yunlong's head, it shook like a "rattle in the hands of a merchant". Wang Jinhua pushed open the door of the east room, walked in and plugged in the deadbolt.

Looking at Wang Jinhua's back, Li Yunlong secretly pondered in his heart: Oh, we almost missed our mouth today. It seems that in the future, before I win the "gold list" next year, I will definitely not be able to mention this issue again!

So, Li Yunlong lay down and closed his eyes. However, his thoughts were like a wild horse that had escaped from the reins, and he flew out of the clouds at once: on the first night of coming to this "drinking water and thinking of the source" study, after dinner, Wang Jinhua picked up the empty bowls and plates and said coyly: Brother Long, I will go to the kitchen to wash the pots and pans. I've boiled warm water for you, so wash and read first!

As she spoke, Wang Jinhua entered the kitchen with the dishes. After a while, Li Yunlong heard the music of "pots and pans" coming from the kitchen. Immediately, a harmonious family atmosphere swirled in his brain. Instantly warmed all the cells in his body!

Suddenly, a wave of heat rose in Li Yunlong's heart to hug Wang Jinhua. When he walked to the kitchen with emotion, a voice flashed in his brain shouting: Li Yunlong, Li Yunlong, the golden flower girl is gentle and kind. Now that you haven't seen your fame, how can you have such disrespectful thoughts about her?

It was this voice that made Li Yunlong stop in shock. He quickly ran into the east room, and threw his body into an ancient flower bed carved with "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea to Show Their Magical Powers". Looking at the top of the bed, he twisted his ears and muttered to himself: Hmph, you stinky boy, if you do that kind of thing to Wang Jinhua before you become famous. You have defiled her, and you have been unkind to your father. What an ungrateful brute!

At this time, Wang Jinhua's silver bell-like voice was crisp and loud and clear to Li Yunlong's eardrums: Brother Long, I have finished washing. If you don't wash it again, the warm water in the tea bottle will be cold.

As soon as Wang Jinhua's words landed, the whole person was already standing at the door with a freshly washed breath. She looked at Li Yunlong in astonishment and said inexplicably: "Brother Long, I thought you were studying in the room, and you waited for us to finish washing before you entered the small cloak room to wash." Why are you lying here staring at the top of your bed? Did something unhappy happen?

Wang Jinhua in front of him, his long hair that had just been washed was still dripping. The body that has lifted the beam of cloth seems to be more and more delicate than the previous days in the palace. The most important thing is that the cheek that has been fumigated by hot water still retains a faint layer of flush at the moment. It's more charming than ever!

For Li Yunlong, it has an unprecedented charm! He was afraid that if he continued to look at it, he would do very unfriendly things to Wang Jinhua. So, he hurriedly hugged some clothes that were ready to be changed, and bowed his head like a child who made a mistake and said: Sister Jinhua, you rest first. I'm going to wash it up!

As he spoke, Li Yunlong turned over and sat up, moved to the side of the bed, stretched his legs down, and inserted them into his cotton shoes. Holding a change of clothes, he rushed into the small cloak behind the kitchen.

Looking at Li Yunlong and seeing her back, Wang Jinhua couldn't help but secretly wonder: Hey, looking at Brother Long like that, it seems that I have become a monster. Hey, it's only been a long time since I saw it. At dinner just now, he was still talking and laughing when he saw me. How did it become such a "timid mouse" state?

Thinking about it, Wang Jinhua unconsciously walked to a transparent floor-to-ceiling hanging wardrobe in the room. Looking at her delicate image in the glass mirror, she finally understood: just now, the reason why Brother Long rushed into the bathroom as if he had fled when he saw her.

Wang Jinhua, who thought about the reason clearly, immediately felt a wave of panic and uneasiness from the bottom of her heart: Oh, let's live in the same room with Brother Long, a girl and a boy, a lonely man and a widow. What kind of system does this look like?

After thinking about it, Wang Jinhua thought of her sister Wang Yinfeng again. Finally, she picked up a small calligraphy pen and wrote on a piece of paper: Brother Long, you are the dream of Sister Yinfeng, and it is her happy harbor. Therefore, I don't want to be caught between you and her as a shameful third party. By the time you're done washing and entering this bedroom, I'll be asleep in the kitchen. We really don't want to do things that hurt Yinfeng's sister uncontrollably!

After writing these words, Wang Jinhua gently placed the note on the bedside table. He opened the hanging closet and took out an old quilt, a cloth mat, a new quilt, and a pillow, and rushed out of the bedroom without looking back, and walked into the kitchen.

When Li Yunlong finished washing and walked into the east room, Wang Jinhua was gone. A sense of foreboding suddenly rose in his heart: Sister Jinhua, shouldn't you have figured out our plan and her father's plan. Play a game of "no goodbye" with me, right? No, there are many, many bad men out there. It's too dangerous for her to be alone outside as a girl!

Thinking of this, Li Yunlong walked quickly to the bedside table. Just as he bent down to put down the clothes he had just changed, a note that still exuded the scent of ink came into his eyes. He hurriedly picked up the note and looked at it, knowing Wang Jinhua's deep affection for Sister Yinfeng, and his respect for her in his heart added a lot: Jinhua, your heart is really perfect. To be able to marry you in this life is really a blessing for Li in his third life!

Thinking of this, Li Yunlong couldn't help but walk to the kitchen door. Through the window above the door, he saw a thick straw mat spread out on top of several small planks in the open space of the kitchen, and a cloth mat spread out on top of an old quilt. These items make up a simple bunk!

At this moment, Wang Jinhua was already lying on this simple bunk, covered with a new quilt. He was still muttering vigorously: Sister Yinfeng, my sister must guard Brother Long for you. My sister will never do anything to be sorry for you, you just have to wait for the good news of "his gold list title" in the house!

The situation in front of him moved Li Yunlong's eyes, and he quickly moistened. In the blurred vision, he thought to himself: Jinhua, Jinhua, you will never know that this time, my father-in-law and we jointly performed the "bitter meat plan", just to make the two of us live together. Yinfeng's sister is bent on "greedy vanity", and when we return to the palace next spring on the "Gold List Title", she will definitely be married to Wan Qilin as her aunt's wife. When that time comes, you'll willingly give your heart to me!

Thinking about it, Li Yunlong's eyes couldn't help but sweep to Wang Jinhua in his dream. Suddenly, a thought came to his heart: Li Yunlong, Li Yunlong, you still keep saying "like her, love her, and care for her". However, she now sleeps on the floor. And you, you're about to lie alone on the flower bed in the east room, dreaming of a beautiful dream. Is this what you call "liking her, loving her, and caring for her"?

Thinking of this, another voice shouted angrily in his heart: No, this is not the fact I want to see. Because, I like her and love her. I'm sure I'll take care of her! So, he reached out and tapped the kitchen door quickly. shouted vigorously: Sister Jinhua, the weather has just warmed up, and the ground is quite cold. You girls are too yin, so it's really not suitable to sleep on the floor. Wake up quickly!

The sound of "pop, pop" suddenly hit Wang Jinhua's heart. She opened her eyes and followed the prestige. I saw Li Yunlong looking at her anxiously through the glass window above the kitchen door, shouting busily. She couldn't help but hold her breath and listen carefully, only to hear the mind of the handsome young man in front of her. She didn't feel a warm feeling in her heart: it turned out that he was worried about my body. What a good boy who can be trusted for life!

Thinking of this, Wang Yinfeng's cheeks flashed in Wang Jinhua's mind again. So, she suddenly woke up and lowered her face and said: Brother Long, stop yelling. For the sake of Sister Yinfeng, I will never sleep with you!

Hearing this, Li Yunlong cried and laughed and said: Sister Jinhua, what kind of person do you think of me? Even if I really want to do something to you, I will wait until next spring when I will be on the "Gold List Title". Open the door and let me go to sleep, and you can sleep on the flower bed in the east room!

When Wang Jinhua heard this, she thought: Oh, it turned out that I misunderstood Brother Long's hard work! Thinking of this, she rolled over and sat up, put on her clothes and shoes, and opened the kitchen door. looked at Li Yunlong and said: Brother Long, let's be so sorry for you!

As she spoke, Wang Jinhua no longer dared to look at Li Yunlong's eyes. Now, it was her turn to run to the east room as if she was running away.

Of course Li Yunlong heard it: Wang Jinhua's fierce heartbeat. However, he was not in the slightest mood to fool her. His heart is full of love! So, he kindly reminded the girl who was running in a hurry: Sister Jinhua, before I become famous, I will never do that kind of thing to any girl. Relax and watch the road under your feet!

When Wang Jinhua heard this, her heart was full of guilt for Li Yunlong. With this feeling in mind, she slowed down and walked to the door of the east room, turned around and said to the boy behind her sincerely: Brother Long, my sister can't stand you. I hope you will understand and forgive!

Li Yunlong said gently: "Sister Jinhua, we can understand your feelings for Sister Yinfeng. So, we definitely don't blame you. If you are not sure about my character. Then, when you walk into the east room, you can plug in the deadbolt!

As soon as Li Yunlong's words landed, he saw that just now, Wang Jinhua, who was extremely flustered, finally showed a lovely smile at him. It's this smile that makes him obsessed. Let him be haunted by his dreams!
