Chapter 21 The Fifty-fifth Year of Qianlong White Dew
Lin Shan said: If at this time, you can't help but want to cry in the wind. Please don't forget that the autumn breeze is cool, the white dew falls, and everything has the sadness of wanting to speak and stopping.
When Liang Peiqiu lies in the canopy boat, driven by the old artemisia through the vast withered lotus pond in late summer, everything seems to feel the same sadness, which is universal and can be eternal without any words. The whole lotus pond is only a piece of not too rich green, with a little yellow corners, and only three or two flower buds bloom in the wind.
In October, the autumn mood is gradually brighter, the wind brings a trace of coolness, and there is a fragrance lingering around, blowing the rotten wounds. Liang Peiqiu curled up on one leg at a strange angle, lying on the bow of the boat, looking at the leaves without blinking, and the water swayed past, as if there was no end to it.
He closed his eyes, a quiet smile on his face.
For the rest of the day, Shi Nian tied the boat to the shore and went to the pavilion alone to wait. After dark, the night breeze was slightly cooler than the day, worried that Liang Peiqiu's sick body would not be able to support it, Shi Nian hesitated for a while and decided to go back to get the cloak, and when he got up, he suddenly put a thin shirt on his shoulders.
It was a harrier.
The fifteen-year-old girl, if nothing else, would have become the mistress of this room in two years, but now she is married to someone else. Ah Harrier put the freshly cooked medicinal soup on the stone table, approached Shi Nian and whispered, "Is he still there?" β
Shi Nian thought it was funny: "What are you doing when you're not there?" β
Ah Harrier was seen through his thoughts, his cheeks flew crimson, although he was shy, he was not afraid, and said bluntly: "I haven't seen him." β
There was a carriage parked outside the Yunshui room, and there was a lantern of Anqing kiln hanging on the front of the car, she guessed that it was the person, and after thinking for a long time, she decided to come and see the legendary little god.
Maybe it's not just the little gods.
"He's Brother Qian's best friend?" Harrier asked cautiously.
Shi Nian nodded, sort of.
"Is he good-looking?"
"You still have the heart to care about this?"
"I think it should be good-looking, Brother Ah Qian never makes friends."
"You're like you as a son?"
Ah Harrier pursed his lips, sat down on the stone bench beside him, looked at the floating water light under the lotus leaves not far away, and began to expect: "Is he asleep?" Aren't you afraid of snakes in the water? β
"Who is as timid as you."
Harrier sighed and muttered, "I don't want to leave here." Can I not marry at that time? If Brother Ah Qian was still here, he would definitely not be willing to let me be wronged, I heard that the man was ugly. β
"Who did you listen to? There are many fish and dragons in the kiln factory, you are a girl, don't run around casually, and don't listen to people chewing the root of your tongue. Shi Nian knew what she was thinking, but she was powerless to recover, "The owner has seen it in person, where can it go wrong?" β
Ah Harrier put two little fat hands like jade snow balls on his knees, twisted together: "Who in this world can compare to Brother A Qian." β
"Harrier ......"
"I understand." Ah Harrier said, "It's just that this family matter is too urgent, and I'm a little afraid." β
"What are you afraid of?"
Ah Harrier shook her head, she couldn't speak, she always felt that as soon as Brother Ah Qian left, the sky would fall. Xu Zhong gets drunk every day, and in addition to this, he arranges a family for her in full swing, and lets her marry in the next month.
How can anyone be in such a hurry to marry a daughter? Ah Harrier couldn't help but panic: "Will something happen to my father?" β
Shi Nian's throat choked, and comforted: "No, don't worry, our kiln factory is so big, and the owner is also healthy, everything will get better after this while." β
Ah Harrier looked at the lotus pond and said nothing.
Shi Nian was worried that she would be sad all the time, so he calculated the time and prepared to call Liang Peiqiu.
"Eh, I'm with you." The little girl jumped down the stone steps with the hem of her skirt and walked in circles as if carefree, not wanting to be timid when she came to the pond, "I'd better go back to the pavilion and wait, the medicinal soup is still there." β
I don't understand what she thinks in her head, it's the same for a while. He said he wanted to go back, but his eyes were still fixed here, and people had already come here, so why pretend to be reserved? He shook his head, pulled the rope and boarded the boat, first shouted Liang Peiqiu's name a few times, and when he saw that no one responded, he hurriedly got into the black peng.
Liang Peiqiu is obviously not very good, and he is already burned. Shi Nian hurriedly screamed, and Ah Harrier carried him back to the house with half a drag and half a hug, and placed him on the couch. Seeing that his face gradually turned red, and he came to his senses, Shi Nian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If you are gone, I am really afraid that my son will come back to settle accounts with me." β
"That's it! Brother Ah Qian will blame us. β
"You ......"
Liang Peiqiu was unprepared, and when she opened her eyes, she met a little girl.
The little girl shook her braids with both hands and said, "I am the fiancΓ©e in the mouth of Mr. Storyteller, Brother Ah Qian, who has recruited famous people from all over the world to please me." She turned her head to Shi Nian again, "I like to listen to books, and that's a good point." β
In the story, she is so mysterious and so legendary.
Even if the honor and disgrace are shared with a man, she is happy.
Even if she has been waiting for him, and all he left her with was the misunderstanding of the one acre of square pond, she was willing to do it. Thinking about it over the years, maybe it was only in that one acre of Fangtang that Brother A Qian had a moment of comfort, right?
"Good thing you're okay." Ah Harrier lowered his head, hiding the hot current surging under his eyes, and Ai Ai looked at Liang Peiqiu, "You get better quickly, don't let Brother Ah Qian worry." β
Liang Peiqiu's eyes suddenly burst into tears.
She's really a good girl, if Brother Liu is still ...... What will it be like today? He promised, "I will." β
"Then take your medicine well."
"Don't get cold anymore."
"Besides, don't you blame it? You let him be alone in the boat on such a cold day, but luckily I prepared ginseng soup in advance. β
"I ......"
The two little ones were about to pinch up, Liang Peiqiu forced the sick body to mediate, seeing that the two of them did not give in to each other, remembering the situation of the teahouse in the past, when Xu Zhiliu watched him fight with Shi Nian, and was as tolerant and gentle as a child.
It's just that time, and you can't go back.
Speaking of sending Anan's mother and son back to their hometown a while ago, he was also very embarrassed. Xu's mother was already seriously ill, and she couldn't afford to be sick when she suddenly had bad news, so she left on the way back. After this incident, the young Anan has grown a lot. Xu Zhong originally wanted to send someone to take him back to Hutian Kiln, but Anan refused.
"I will keep filial piety for my mother and brother for three years." Anan said.
Asked what his plans were for the future, Anan was silent for a long time, and then seemed to have made a huge determination, looking at the rolling mountains in the distance, his face showed a depth that was completely inconsistent with the young man, and said: "I want to study and gain fame." β
Anan said, "I want to see with my own eyes the big world and the heart that my brother once longed for. β
Every time I think of that scene, I can't help but have red eyes.
"Childe's savings were all left to their mother and son, and the money was originally prepared by Childe...... Leeway. When they packed up their cages and prepared to return to their hometown, Xu Zhiliu had made more plans than he thought, "Gongzi has already gone to the patriarch early, preparing to set up two acres of thin fields, set up a private school in the village, and invite the former teacher back." He originally planned to go back to Yaoli to continue his studies, and his talent ......"
Liang Peiqiu was shocked, and grabbed Shi Nian's hand excitedly: "What did you say?" β
"Why were you suddenly called back to the capital when An Nineteen? That's because Childe wrote a love letter in the big dragon tank! I plan to eradicate An ......" Shi Nian's voice paused, and he looked left and right.
Even if the door is closed at home, the fear of Jingdezhen people for the eunuch is engraved in their bones. Shi Nian gritted his teeth and said: "Childe originally planned to eradicate the tumor of the fox king and return to his hometown, the cage has been packed, who would have thought that the fox king would be able to get out and come back after being convicted of the crime, not to mention killing the sunspot, but also framing Anan and threatening the child!" Childe was forced to have no way out, sitting in front of the lamp every night, and it was difficult to sleep and eat. If not, how can a bowl not be burned? Hateful, Quan Gelding is really hateful! β
An Nineteen is not only the fox king of the drama taken by the people to avoid trouble, but also the eunuch of power, a scholar wants to fight with such people, if there is a way to live, I am afraid that they will die for a lifetime, not to mention that they have never been able to win the eunuch.
The former Tongbin fire god is like this.
The same is true of Xu Dacai today.
"If Gongzi didn't wade into this troubled water, and didn't make a name for Yang Zheng, maybe he would ......"
"Then it won't be him." After a sigh, the pale boy on the hospital bed looked at the moonlight by the window and muttered, "Do it again, he'll do it again." β
Ah Harrier wept silently, touching her head at that time.
The room was quiet for a while, and Shi Nian patted his head: "Look at my memory, I almost forgot, I originally went to you to find something for you." "Who knew that a rush almost delayed the business. Shi Nian touched his chest, took out a cloth bag and handed it over, "I don't know when Childe prepared it......"
Liang Peiqiu took the cloth bag and touched it with her hand, like a letter.
Shi Nian motioned him to open it, and it was a house deed inside! The deed of the cloud and water!
"Childe knows that you don't have a house in Jingdezhen, so he left the only property to you, and the old clothes and books are still there, and it's up to you to dispose of it."
Now I am afraid that the only person in front of me will not retreat because the owner of this room is Xu Zhiliu. Although Childe and him have known each other for a short time, they seem to have the same heart?
"Whether it's a roof tile that shelters from the wind and rain, or a hugging house that is warm in winter and cool in summer, what does the little god want? Why did Childe give you a small courtyard? Shi Nian said, "He has never regarded you as an opponent, not that you are unworthy, but that he is not here." He cherishes your talent very much, only your identity and position, and only praises your ability in front of me, and the god who can judge the fire in the kiln across a river is really rare. Liang Peiqiu, can you understand his mind? How he hopes that you can make a world in Jingdezhen. β
Liang Peiqiu had already burst into tears: "If I can't get it, it's a long-cherished wish that will never come true, right?" He promised to show me the lotus pond, and I have been looking forward to that day. I want to see what catches him whenever he's tired and lonely......"
To love the lotus out of the mud but not stained, clear ripples but not demons.
He said he Mucha.
He's really Mucha.
He gave him a place to live, gave him a heart of ice, and his heart flew to the Taihe Palace, but he still gave him a peach blossom source, between mountains and rivers. "Why...... Why is this happening? What did he think? Am I wrong? I...... Did I hurt him after all? Liang Peiqiu held the paper-thin deed and cried breathlessly, "Brother Liu, can you tell me?" You've never changed, have you? β
Seeing that Liang Peiqiu finally cried, Shi Nian's heart was holding on, and he was suddenly deflated.
It's good to cry, right?
In the middle of the night, calm finally returned to the house.
Just when he was drowsy with his elbows, Liang Peiqiu woke him up.
"What's wrong?" He hurriedly got up and trotted over rubbing his sleepy eyes, "What's uncomfortable?" β
Liang Peiqiu shook his head, looked out the window and said, "At that time, look at the moon tonight." β
"Huh?"
"Isn't it big and round?"
When I heard it, my heart trembled.
Liang Peiqiu smiled and said, "Would you like to accompany me to see the moonlight in the lion's lane?" β
