Chapter 26: Gantang
After thinking for a while, Su Ye replied: "If you want to send something to ward off evil spirits, it would be good to send a piece of jade." ”
Sheng Xuan felt justified.
"I remember you had a jade pendant. Hey, I'm still wearing it! Su Ye said, casting his eyes on the pendant on his waist, Sheng Xuan picked it up when he heard it, and rubbed it lightly between his fingers: This is indeed a good jade, white and flawless, and the color is excellent.
"I've been wearing this jade pendant for many years, so it's not appropriate to give it away, right?"
What's more, this pattern style is not suitable for girls.
Su Ye waved his hand, "It's okay, I know the best jade craftsman in the entire Yichuan, I'll lead you to him when I'm free." ”
Sheng Xuan nodded resentfully: "Thank you." ”
Su Ye clenched his fist with one hand and held the pestle in front of him: "Good buddy? ”
Sheng Xuan resented and punched him: "Good buddy." ”

When Qiong also returned to the dormitory from Shoutai all the way, it was already three watches. When she arrived in the house, she fell asleep on the bed from exhaustion, and slept until dawn, when the rooster crow at the beginning of the morning did not wake anyone up, until more than half an hour after waking up on weekdays, she opened her eyes in a daze.
Joan yawned, as if she had forgotten something.
Sitting at the dresser, she made a layer of gardenia balm with a wooden comb, and she slowly braided her hair and braided it before she remembered it.
…… Am I the one who released the pigeons?
Qiong also thought in hindsight: I told him yesterday that today will pass early!
After hastily braiding her hair, Qiong also hurriedly pinned the strings and swords, brought her bookware, pushed the door and ran straight to the south mountain. "There's only three quarters of an hour left before morning class, so he's not still waiting for me, is he?" Joan also ran fast, her braids flapping again and again on her back, the corners of her skirt rose above her knees, and her forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat because of anxiety.
How did I forget?
Qiong also hoped that Sheng Xuanzhi would not wait for her there, if he was still waiting there, she would feel guilty.
But when he came to the foot of Nanshan, Qiong also saw him at a glance.
Sheng Xuanyan sat on a stone with his back to her, the dark blue robe on his body was embroidered with flying cloud patterns, the black waist ring was sturdy, and the silver belt was hooked in the not bright morning light, flickering slightly, he sat very upright, his arms were bent on his legs, as if he was holding something.
"Sheng Hao."
After hearing Qiong Yi's call, Sheng Xuanyan turned around, his brows raised slightly, his expression was a little surprised, and the moment he saw her, his originally calm black eyes flashed with a glimmer of light. He held the pastry, stood up and walked towards Qiong Yi, there was no big expression on his face, but she could easily see the joy hidden in it: "Lu Xiyan, you are here." ”
He looked at her, not knowing what to say, so he handed over the pastry in his hand: "I promised you yesterday, Gantang cake." ”
Qiong Yi's heart seemed to be pinched, she looked at Sheng Xuan's dark eyes that were not dissatisfied at all because of her late arrival, and when he handed the pastry to her, the corners of her lips pursed slightly, this sincere look actually made people feel gentle and compassionate.
"I'm sorry. I'm late. Joan also lowered her head to take the pastry, her chest rising and falling slightly because she was running too fast on the road, "I came so late, why are you still waiting for me?" ”
Sheng Xuan resented that he was waiting for her while practicing swords, and it was not considered to be waiting, and he was already used to sitting there alone without saying a word. He replied very dryly: "You said you would come, and I would always wait for you, unless it is close to morning class and I have to go back to school, otherwise I will stay here." ”
Hearing this, Qiong Yi's guilt rose like a tide, and she felt that she had not kept her promise and had failed Sheng Xuan's grievances.
"I'm sorry." Qiong also raised her hand to pull his arm, but retracted it again, "I made you wait so long." ”
"Soon," he said. Then he pointed to the stone where he had been sitting before, and said, "Sit down and taste the cake." ”
Qiong also took two steps towards the stone, and was about to sit down when Sheng Xuan suddenly said, "Wait." She didn't know what Sheng Xuanyan was going to do, but she saw him take out a piece of silk from his arms, bend down and wipe the flat stone, and then motioned to her: "You can sit again." ”
Joan also looked at him in a daze, her heart was beating wildly, and she sat down on the stone.
She felt that Sheng Xuan was stupid and smart when he was resentful, and his brain was stunned when he spoke, but what he did made people think he was very good.
Joan also came out with such a sentence without beginning or end: "...... Sheng Hao, I don't hate you. ”
Sheng Xuan complained about it, his heart froze, his eyes were half-lowered, dark and thick inside, and all his thoughts were just like a beginning in front of her completely marginal words.
He replied, "I don't hate you either. ”
After hearing this reply, Qiong Yi smiled lightly, she opened the oil paper wrapped in Gantang cake, spread it on her knees, picked up a flower-like pastry that looked like orange and pink with her thin fingers, and handed it to Sheng Xuan, who was sitting cross-legged on her side: "You eat first." ”
Sheng Xuan resented that she handed the Gantang cake to her mouth, and was stunned for a moment, and then raised her hand to take it: "Hmm." He took the pastry and didn't eat it directly, but watched Qiong Yi pick up another piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, and at that moment, Sheng Xuan resented that her eyes lit up.
"Uh-huh!" Joan couldn't help grinning, her crescent-like eyes were shining, her eyelashes were upturned, and the two little tiger teeth were faintly stained with powdered sugar, and her voice was a little vague in her mouth, as if the beads that fell on the jade plate were coated with sugar in advance.
I don't know why, Sheng Xuan looked at her and smiled, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but raise slightly.
When Lu Xiyan laughed, it was like the sun on Baiyu Mountain, which made people feel warm, and they didn't dare to look at it for a long time.
If only I could keep it forever.
Sheng Xuan thought about it resentfully, and took a bite of the pastry into his mouth, and the sweet pear flavor melted in his mouth, depressed in his throat, and lasted for a long time. He remembered that he didn't think Qiong Yi was good-looking at first, he just thought it was a very plain face, nothing special.
When thinking so, Sheng Xuanyan turned his head to look at her sitting beside him, with a goose egg face, big eyes, light eyebrows, a curled nose, slightly full lips, and beautiful and harmonious facial features.
Her smiling face, like a white magnolia flower, made him look fascinated for a while.
How can anyone have pupils of this color?
Sheng Xuanyan had never seen this purple in her eyes, like the twilight of early summer, like the snow shadow of winter.
"Joan." He called out suddenly.
Qiong, who was eating Gantang cake, also stopped.
“…… Can I call you that? ”
Qiong Yi looked at him in a daze, and now there is no one else who calls her "Qiong Yi" in this world except Zhu Yunluo.
“…… No. She clutched the oiled paper on her knee, "No." ”
After being silent for a long time, he said: "This is my very important name, I can't ......" Before he finished speaking, his eyes met Sheng Xuanyan's deep eyes, and Qiong was speechless as if he was dumb.
"Anyway, no." She said.
Sheng Xuan only complained: "Okay, I know." ”
*
Qiong also felt that Sheng Xuan's resentment seemed to be awkward because of this incident.
"Maybe he'll think to himself, 'What, isn't it just a name, and you won't let me be called so stingy?' Joan was also lying on the bed in her dormitory, making a hand shadow on the wall by the candlelight, and muttering to herself, "No, no! Not even a lifesaver! ”
"Ordinary classmates, if you let him call him ...... like that" Qiong Yiyi felt inappropriate just thinking about it: "That's it, let's let him call me Lu Xiyan." ”
"If he really wanted to be more intimate, would he call me Xiyan?"
"No! That's even weirder! ”
Qiong Yi thought about it and thought that Sheng Xuan's resentment was probably still unable to forget the strange name "Lu Qiongyi", so he wanted to call himself like that.
The truth is, Joan really guessed right.
Sheng Xuanyan felt that the name "Lu Qiongyi" was much better than "Lu Xiyan", and if the surname Lu was not added, the word "Qiongyi" alone would be more comfortable and easy to read.
Unfortunately, Joan didn't want him to be called that.
Sheng Xuan didn't understand the reason, but he still felt lost.
"So, Sheng Xuan resents that you really have thoughts about her?" In another dormitory, Su Ye was holding the baby sword and sweeping the wind, carrying out another day of cleaning and care.
Sheng Xuan leaned on the table with her head propped up: "She said she didn't hate me." ”
When Su Ye heard this, he shouted that your kid is not promising: "You have only seen a few girls, I know that your family is in a tight hurry when you are old, but aren't you still early, don't you have more contact with people?" ”
Sheng Xuan lowered his head and didn't speak, and after a while, when his tail came to pull his trouser leg, he said, "I don't know." ”
"In my opinion, Lu Xiyan is a very good girl, she writes well, she is far-sighted, and she has a straightforward temperament, and the cultivation aura revealed by the whole person is also very high, and she looks good." Su Ye wiped his sword with silk, "To be honest, I still eat this hanging." ”
Sheng Xuanyan raised his head and stared at him with rather resentful eyes.
"What do you see me doing?" Su Ye snorted, "When I first saw her, I provoked her, she ignored me, and later found out that ......" He said, and looked at Sheng Xuanren again: "Don't you think that I and her are the same kind of people?" ”
Sheng Xuan complained: "I don't think so." ”
Su Ye snorted again: "I don't want women for a long time now, and my heart is on my sword!" ”
Sheng Xuan resented him: "You'd better tell the truth." ”
"Shh Su Ye put down the silk in his hand: "You are inexperienced and don't expect me to slap me, if you block me here, be careful that I won't help you when I turn around." ”
Sheng Xuan was dumbfounded: "...... Please drink. ”
Su Ye responded: "It's done!" He held his chin and thought, "If I can send you, just don't treat her as a prey to set up tricks and routines, just be yourself." ”
Qiong also felt that Sheng Xuan's resentment was a wooden fool, but Su Ye knew him, this person could go around in a big circle at the age of five, and at the age of seven, he could make himself a scapegoat for a whole street, and when he grew up, he would be at peace, but would the little fox grow up to become a white rabbit? Obviously impossible.
"What's the use of your advice?" Sheng Xuan resented that what Su Ye said was equivalent to not saying: "I told you, I can easily make her angry." ”
"But you also said that she was so coaxing, isn't this just canceling each other out?" Su Ye spread his hands: "The most important thing you should use is your face." ”
Sheng Xuan shook his head resentfully: "I can't look good." ”
Su Ye scolded: "You have a eye problem!" ”
Sheng Xuan didn't pay attention to him anymore, but picked up the tail at his feet, and the tail was caught off guard and screamed. He said, "Tail, you can go with me tomorrow to practice swords." ”
Can Su Ye not know Sheng Xuan's careful thoughts? Do you want the tail to go to sparring, or to help him keep people! He sighed: "This year, the puppies have to get up early, tail, your life is miserable!" ”
