There is a dilapidated mansion on the outskirts of Yingchi County, the ridge of the house is crumbling, the ruins are broken, and only a faint fire proves that there are still people here.
"Dad, mother, the lotus pods of the autumn harvest have been sold, and this year I finally have some money left over to buy medicine for my grandfather. Is Daddy okay over there? Yun'er will take good care of her grandfather, please rest assured. Burning the last piece of yellow paper in her hand, Su Shiyun rubbed the tip of her sour nose, and poured a cool breeze when the autumn breeze blew, and couldn't help but hug her shoulders and tremble.
The sky is getting dark, Su Shiyun is still reluctant to leave, after all, there is only one time a year to return to the place that was once called "home", if people really have souls, she hopes that her father and mother can see her more, even if it is just a glance. Because staring at the gradually extinguishing fire was too distracted, Su Shiyun only heard the sound of horses' hooves in a hurry, and stood up in a panic, only to see a man and a horse tearing through the night and breaking into sight, vaguely with a few wisps of blood.
"Don't make a sound, put out the fire." The rider quickly rushed into the rubble and jumped off his horse, and without raising his head on the horse's legs, the horse neighed, kicked up a large cloud of dust and drove away.
Su Shiyun was so frightened that she couldn't speak, let alone make a move, so the man had to kick away the fire that was about to be extinguished. When passing by Su Shiyun's side, the man was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Why are you?" ”
Hearing the familiar voice, Su Shiyun looked at the dim moonlight suspiciously, only to find that the person in front of her was actually the man who broke into the lotus dock two months ago. What is a rich kid doing in the wilderness? It's still so embarrassing at this time......
"You, you're bleeding!" When she found that there were blood stains on the man's body, Su Shiyun exclaimed in surprise.
"Shhhh The man covered Su Shiyun's mouth and pulled her into a dark corner, not noticing that Su Shiyun's face was so red that she almost wanted to cry in fright. After a while, a group of people roared past in front of the old mansion like a pile of rubble, and the cold murderous aura made Su Shiyun's tears that had been held back for a long time welled up. 173
When the horse was far away, the man was finally willing to let go of his hand, closed his eyes and let out a long breath: "Okay, the danger is gone." Suddenly feeling a wet palm, the man opened his eyes and approached Su Shiyun, and his tone was much softer: "Why are you crying?" Scared? ”
Wiping away her tears and nodded, Su Shiyun tried not to look too wretched, but her tears fell down vigorously.
The man's warm fingertips gently scraped away the tears from the corners of Su Shiyun's eyes, and he was obviously tired but still smiled: "I'm sorry, I've hurt you, so it's a small punishment for you lied to me last time." I can't speak anything, but in fact, I sing very beautifully. ”
Thinking of the last time she pretended to be dumb and lied to him, Su Shiyun blushed for a while, and laughed out loud when she thought about it, inexplicably not so scared.
"You live around here?"
Su Shiyun shook her head and pointed in the opposite direction to the county government.
The man saw that Su Shiyun still refused to speak, and his tone was a little helpless: "Is the girl still a bad person for me?" Say a word, just a word, I like to listen to the girl's voice. ”
Still silent.
"Okay, I won't force you." The man sighed, pressed his shoulder and frowned slightly, "Can the girl help me find a hidden place to live?" Oh, I don't need a good place, I can take a break from the wind and rain, I have to take care of the wound first. ”
Nodding, carefully leading the way in front, listening to the steady footsteps behind him, he felt a sense of security for no reason, and after walking with a cup of tea, Su Shiyun finally pretended to be bold and whispered: "What do you call your son?" ”
"Huaiyu, Yi Huaiyu-" The casual tone suddenly stopped, and turned into overjoy, "Finally willing to talk to me, sure enough, the girl's voice is very good." Oh, by the way, I haven't asked the girl's name yet. ”
"Su, Su Shiyun."
Yi Huaiyu chuckled, and seemed to be in a very good mood: "Poetry rhyme, good name, just in line with the girl's gentle temperament." ”
It's just not quite a good fit.
Of course, this sentence was not spoken.
Su Shiyun took Yi Huaiyu back to Lotus Dock, and when she got home, it was dark, her grandfather had already slept, looking at the shabby and dilapidated thatched house, Yi Huaiyu did not show dissatisfaction, but Su Shiyun looked embarrassed - only this empty house, how can two people rest?
"I'm just resting in the yard outside, I'm used to sleeping in the open, I don't mind." Seeing Su Shiyun's difficulty, Yi Huaiyu said briskly.
"How's that going to work? The lakeside is an unusual place, there are many mosquitoes and poisonous, and Yi Gongzi will become fat the next day after sleeping outside for one night. Su Shiyun didn't notice that she was joking inadvertently, and when she saw Yi Huaiyu's eyes shining and smiling at her, she couldn't help but blush, and turned around to avoid his gaze, "Yi Gongzi will rest first, and I'll go to grandpa's side." ”
Yi Huaiyu thought for a moment, then suddenly sat on the ground, raised his hand and patted the ground beside him: "Don't disturb the old man's rest, anyway, I can't sleep because my wound hurts, how about the girl give up a night to chat with me?" Besides, I can't deal with the wound on my back myself, so I have to ask the girl to lend a hand. ”
first begged for a place to rest, and then made this request, Su Shiyun really wanted to scold him for being a scoundrel, but when she saw Yi Huaiyu covered in blood, she felt unbearable, so she had to fetch water and smoke grass to get busy, and when everything was done, she stood honestly at the door, twisting her fingers and not saying a word.
Lonely men and widows stay alone all night, and if they spread the word, they will be poked in the back.
Yi Huaiyu took off his coat to clean the wound, the cold water was so excited that he trembled, and he had no choice but to chat and change the topic, remembering what he heard the old man say last time, he said casually: "What evil officials are there here who oppress the people?" If you have one, just tell me, maybe it can help. ”
"The county guard is a parent official in a place, and he is named in the court, what can Yi Gongzi help with? The people have been accustomed to it all these years, when did an official say that it would be strictly investigated and dealt with, but in the end, it was not all the people? After a long time, no matter how many grievances there are, they can only be swallowed back into their stomachs. Sighing and shaking her head, Su Shiyun expressed the doubts in her heart, "Then again, how could Yi Gongzi appear in the suburbs?" Are these injuries caused by the bad guys chasing you? Think about it...... Yi Gongzi is not like a son-in-law, but like those heroes walking on the rivers and lakes. ”
Yi Huaiyu was slightly stunned, and then laughed: "Has Miss Su ever seen such an embarrassed hero?" The hero will not rob a girl for help, and the good girl will cry so much that the pear blossom brings the rain to make people feel distressed. ”
"If Yi Gongzi is so open-mouthed, I, I won't talk to you."
Seeing that Su Shiyun was angry and wanted to leave, Yi Huaiyu hurriedly got up and pulled her, who knew that Su Shiyun was unexpectedly light, but she was pulled and stumbled with a little force, and fell backwards into Yi Huaiyu's arms.
It was embarrassing and restrained enough for the two to be alone, but falling into the arms of a strange man made Su Shiyun so shy that she forgot to breathe, and wanted to struggle to stand up, her eyes were just right on Yi Huaiyu, and her eyes were as black as ink and bright as stars, like an endless abyss, tempting her to sink into it.
His gentleness, his whims, his mystery, are unimaginably attractive to a young girl who lives a reclusive life.
