Chapter 89: The Reed Boy (11)
"It's okay."
Lan Qing raised her hand and rubbed the corner of her forehead, and her voice was still as gentle as before.
Wen Cha shivered and chilled, she pushed him away, like a frightened rabbit, and fled quickly.
The heavy sound of the door closing made Lan Qing frown, he looked at his hand that was a little hot, his eyes were sideways, he looked at a corner of the courtyard, and his thin lips opened lightly: "Come out."
Before the words fell, three small children dressed in white suddenly flashed in the corner.
The three children looked a little similar to Lan Qing, different sizes, different heights, the eldest was about six or seven years old, the youngest was four or five years old, and the youngest was even younger, but their faces were all pale, huddled together, and looked at Lan Qing cautiously, with horror on their faces, but more in awe.
The youngest child was the first to call out "brother", and the other two children also called out one by one, waiting motionlessly for Lan Qing to speak.
Lan Qing glanced at them, his face was cold, and said, "In the future, you are not allowed to come out to scare her."
The three children nodded obediently, and the eldest one took the lead and said, "I saw the bracelet, is it ...... Brother's? β
Lan Qing didn't speak.
The younger one said, "The little sister is so good-looking."
The other two seconded: "Standing with my brother, like a fairy."
Lan Qing's face turned slightly pale, and he said, "The day after tomorrow is the full moon, you can help me do something."
The eldest child immediately responded: "As long as we can do it, brother, please tell me."
The corners of Lan Qing's mouth moved, and he said a few words silently, and the three children all looked at each other, and said in a panic: "If this is done, we will have to leave."
"It's long overdue."
"What about my brother?"
Lan Qing said: "I have my own measure."
"Brother......" The youngest child was a little sad: "Let's not go together?"
"You go first."
"But ......"
"No," Lan Qing said softly, "I'll let you know the specific time, go back."
Seeing that his face did not change and his face was as cold as ice, the three children wanted to say something, but in the end they couldn't say anything, pushed and shoved, and left in frustration.
There was only a faint vapor in the air, silent, spreading.
Lan Qingguang waved his sleeves, and those water vapors disappeared in an instant.
He turned around, looked at the dark room with the lights out, and stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Wen Chawo was slowing down in the futon, and when he heard the voice, his teeth chattered: "Who?"
Lan Qing imagined her scared look, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise, "It's me." β
Wen Cha breathed a sigh of relief, hugged the quilt, stuck out her head and said, "Why don't you sleep yet?"
Lan Qing said: "Seeing that you are not asleep, come and see you."
"I'm fine." Wen Cha drove him away: "You can go back to sleep too."
Lan Qing touched his nose, "Really? β
"Hmm."
"Then I'm leaving."
Hearing that he was leaving, Wen Cha still had palpitations, thinking that he was very human, he still had an umbrella when he walked, and he walked without a sound, etc., countless barrages flashed in his heart, and finally died down, and it took a long time before he fell asleep.
Lan Qing waited at the door for a while, the steady breathing that came quietly made him bend his eyes, he leaned outside the door, looked at the moon that was getting rounder and rounder, the corners of his mouth pursed slightly, and closed his eyes.
The next day, as soon as the sun came out, Wen Cha jumped out of bed and ran to the door of the house to see the three footprints of the previous night.
After the night, the door of the house was clean and there was nothing.
Wen Cha looked at the reeds not far from the door of the house, and countless speculations flashed in his mind, but none of them were confirmed, so he had to give up.
She sighed, and was about to close the door to cook, when Aunt Liu, who was opposite the door, suddenly opened the door of the house, and her bloated body came out, and when she saw her, her smiling eyes were invisible, "Brother Cha, I got up early today." β
Wen Cha nodded perfunctorily.
Aunt Liu didn't notice it for half a minute, approached Wen Cha, with an indescribable excitement between her eyebrows, she whispered: "Brother Cha, what I said yesterday, my aunt has already explained it to Liu Gongzi, Liu Gongzi said, I will come to see you today, what do you think?"
Can't wait......
Wen Cha raised his eyebrows, and also smiled: "Liu Gongzi is naturally good to come to see me, I don't know where to choose this place?"
"Place?" Aunt Liu was stunned, not knowing what Wen Cha wanted to express, but said with a smile: "If Gongzi Liu wants to come to see you, he will naturally come to your house."
"Liu Gongzi is thoughtful."
"Yes," Aunt Liu didn't hear her words, rubbed her hands, and said flatteringly: "When this Liu Gongzi heard his aunt talk about you, he liked you, you have to grasp it well."
Wen Cha was noncommittal, and the conversation changed: "Liu Gongzi is naturally happy to come to the house, but I haven't left the cabinet yet, and I haven't been in time for it, plus there is such a little child as Zhen'er by my side, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for Liu Gongzi to come rashly."
Aunt Liu's face was stunned, and she said unhappily: "Gongzi Liu only came to see you, and then left, what's wrong?"
Wen Cha sneered in his heart, but his face was impassive, "My aunt also came from the girl's house, what's wrong, I should know better than me." β
Aunt Liu's face was a little uncontrollable, seeing that the matter was about to be done, Wen Cha was picking and choosing here again, Aunt Liu's little patience was swept away, and she was about to scold Wen Cha for not knowing how to lift, but she was a concubine who was not even a concubine and dared to pick fat and thin? But you can't tear your face yet. As soon as she thought of the follow-up silver, all resentment dissipated.
She put on a smiling face and pandered: "You're right, I'll discuss it with Liu Gongzi."
Wen Cha stopped her coldly: "Auntie, what place can I choose?"
Aunt Liu was speechless, "This is your affair with Gongzi Liu, and my aunt naturally has no opinion." β
"Then the aunt told Liu Gongzi that I want to meet him in the aunt's house, what does the aunt think?"
Before the words fell, Aunt Liu was shocked, she felt wrong, she was a smart person, she just wanted to take money, she didn't want to wade into troubled waters, she was about to refuse, she took herself out, raised her eyes, Wen Cha was looking at her with a smile, "Liu Gongzi must be an adult man with a crown, I am a little scared when I see him alone, if the aunt next to me is there, I will be much more stable." β
What she said was reasonable, Aunt Liu was still a little suspicious, her eyes swept over her face, and found that her eyes were clear and bright, and her eyes were precipitated with dependence and trust in her, Aunt Liu was secretly proud, let down her vigilance, and let go: "Auntie will promise you for the time being, after discussing with Liu Gongzi, if Liu Gongzi also agrees, I will come to you in the evening."
"Okay," Wen Chaxiao's eyebrows curled, as if he was looking forward to seeing that Liu Gongzi, "I'll wait here for good news from my aunt." β
Aunt Liu glanced at her smiling like a flower, so she didn't look forward to it, and sneered in her heart, it's too early to be happy, when the time comes, when the "Liu Gongzi" really comes to see this little hoof, some of them are crying from her!
Aunt Liu turned around and left.
Wen Cha put away his smiling face, turned around and closed the door, and went to prepare breakfast for Lu Zhen.
Before she could get close to the kitchen, there was the sound of adding firewood from inside, and she pushed open the door, and the young man in a black coarse cloth robe was sitting on a low stool, squinting his eyes and making a fire.
The white fingers are black, and the tip of the nose and the side of the face are also stained with a lot of soot, which looks a little embarrassed.
Wen Cha stood at the door and snorted, and the young man raised his eyes, his face dyed like a flower cat faded into a noble and more pyrotechnic atmosphere.
Wen Cha was stunned, Lan Qing bent his eyes and laughed, "Today, if you get up, I'll get up, isn't it amazing?" β
Wen Cha retracted his gaze, turned around and went out.
Lan Qing frowned, she couldn't figure out what was wrong with her, and was about to drop the stove to follow, when Wen Cha ran back.
She threw the coarse cloth towel soaked in water into his arms, and said very coldly, "Wipe it yourself."
Lan Qing didn't know why, "What?" β
At the moment of questioning, Wen Cha saw his hand, which was even more miserable than his face.
She took the towel out of his arms, and without explanation, said, "Raise your head."
Lan Qing was slightly stunned, and then raised his head obediently, Wen Cha bent down, the hot breath fluttered on his face, the girl's fragrance was like a camellia slowly blooming in the mountains in the early morning, slowly clean, long and deep, and it smelled very good.
He couldn't help but get closer, trying to find the source of the aroma carefully, and then threw a towel at his face, "What do you think, your face is so red?" β
The cold touch obscured all his expressions, but his fingers began to shrink, his ears involuntarily burned, and the self-evident secret mood stained his eyes with worldly greed.
Something you want to get, no, something you want to grab...... What exactly that is, is already obvious.
His breath was rapid, and his chest was cold, and the beating of the dead and resurrection flashed.
However, no, not yet.
He closed his eyes and suppressed all emotions.
Wen Cha wiped the carbon ash off the young man's face, and almost laughed when he looked at him with his eyes closed and red ears, looking like he was waiting for someone to be lucky.
She stretched out her hand, patted him on the face, and pretended to be inserious, "Do you still want to wait for a good morning kiss?"
Lan Qing opened his eyes, her appearance was reflected in his eyes, he smiled, Qing Shui hibiscus was as natural, he turned his head and asked, "Is it okay?"
"What a ghost!"
So unfocused......
Wen Cha took back the towel, looked at him condescendingly, and snorted: "I'll take you out for a while and continue to look for your fiancΓ©e."
Lan Qing suddenly had a bitter face, and was about to refuse, Wen Cha continued: "I inquired for you yesterday, there are still a few little girls on the edge of the village who have not reached the border, as expected, there must be someone you are looking for in it."
Lan Qing couldn't say that he was bitter, so he buried himself in a stove of firewood.
Wen Cha walked out briskly with a towel.
Walking to the well, she touched the bracelet on her wrist, and reflexively remembered the dress he was wearing when she first met Lan Qing.
Something very important flashed through her mind, and when she tried to grab it, it disappeared completely.
She patted her head, washed the towel, and turned back to cook the meal with Lan Qing.
