Chapter 780: Under the Rain
Spring tour 'Baicui Mountain', summer appreciation 'Cicada Pavilion'.
In just two seasons and half a year, the rain has been walking hand in hand with Gu Gongzi. They played in the world, although they had never been out of the 'Meng Kingdom' realm, but they already regarded each other as people who wanted to spend their lives together.
Today's rain changed into a white dress that Gu Gongzi loved, and wanted to go to see the stage in early autumn with him.
Since leaving the Tianxuan Continent, Yu Yu has never worn a skirt again. has always only worn red clothes, in order to look lean, but also to get rid of the weakness of women. But today, she wore a white dress again, just because Gu Gongzi said that he wanted to see how she looked in a white dress......
In the room, next to the pile of books, the bronze mirror shone brightly, and the rain unconsciously put on peach blossom makeup.
In the bronze mirror, he is no longer young, and in the eyes of mortals, he is already a half-aged who has reached the age of thirty!
Although she didn't like this partial title, in the eyes of mortals, a thirty-year-old woman was the half-old! And the strange thing was that when a man reached the age of thirty, he was called the year of establishment, which seemed to be the age of great achievements, and he should not be wasted.
She didn't care about these rains, because she knew that in a few days, Gu Gongzi would come to propose marriage. Although he hasn't said it yet, the rain just knows.
Not only Yan Yu thinks so, but the people of the entire Taiping Town think so.
The sun has set, the weather in early autumn is very cool, and the rain in the white dress washes away the peach blossom makeup on the face, because this makeup can only be put on the day of marriage, and I can't wait......
After packing up his clothes, he took back the things that had been drying in the courtyard, rolled up his skirt sleeves in the rain, and closed the door panel of the 'Millennium Wine'.
After closing the door of the store, seeing that Gu Gongzi had not yet come, Yan Yu walked towards the river stream, looking at the slowly flowing river, while waiting for Gu Gongzi's arrival.
The river in front of me was not in a hurry, but there were only willow trees on the bank of the river, but there were no people.
There are lights in the distance, but there are only two or three households, seeing the quiet Taiping Town at night, Yan Yu can't help but sigh in his heart: "It's been seven years......
The time in Taiping Town has passed seven years unconsciously.
There is nothing going on, but there is always something quietly changing.
"Uniform Dust Star" is the same as the Demon Sea, and what has become now, she doesn't know what she has become mortal. Whether the demon beasts of the "Eternal Demon Domain" have settled down, and whether the Monk Alliance has recaptured the lost land of the Demon Sea, these various storms are no longer known, and she will not care.
But the current 'Meng State' has become turbulent.
The government has already started to levy taxes, and merchants have to pay more taxes than in previous years. Those, Yu Yu can guess the reason. At the same time, I was also thinking about the current situation of the old man who sold wine.
For the monarch of a country, having a special fruit wine allows his soldiers to expand his territory and achieve hegemony, which no one can persuade and prevent. But for a father and a son, how bad the conflict between them will become, and Li Yu can't guess.
In her heart, she didn't want anything to happen to the old man who sold wine, and she also prepared 'Xia Dong Nuan' and waited for him to come back. But it's been two years since the farewell, and I don't dare to guess whether the old man who sells wine will come back......
The moon was bright tonight, and the blue light shone on the streets of the alleys. Every shop is closed, but you can still feel the bustle.
When he turned around, Yan Yu listened carefully and already heard the sound of gongs and drums. This means that the troupe on the stage has already started singing! However, Gu Gongzi has not yet arrived for some reason.
With his brows furrowed slightly, he took a small walk and began to walk towards the mouth of the alley.
Gu Gongzi does not live in Taiping Town, and every time he comes back from a trip with the rain, he will taste a pot of wine brewed by the rain himself in the courtyard before returning to 'Songyuan Town'.
Back and forth, although the time was delayed, Gu Gongzi never complained, and he was never half a moment late.
But tonight, he was a long time late......
On the stone path, the rain walked very slowly, and she did not carry the lantern, because her eyes were still the 'forbidden eyes', and she could see everything clearly.
Walking slowly, Yu Yu listened carefully, because she could recognize the sound of Gu Gongzi's horse's hooves. But even though she had already walked onto the stone bridge and looked at the actors on the stage from afar, she still never saw Gu Gongzi coming.
"Is there something wrong?" was inexplicably panicked in his heart, and Yan Yu remembered the scene when he was at the foot of Wangfu Mountain that year, and he couldn't wait for Brother Hu.
His hands kept spinning around his fingers, and after waiting for a while, he ran towards the stage.
In front of the crowd, a middle-aged rich man sat on a row of chairs.
What he tasted in his hand was the 'Peach Blossom Wine', and the women around him were also as beautiful as flowers.
"Money shopkeeper, is there anyone in your shop? I'm going to borrow a horse" Squeezed into the crowd, Yan Yu came to the middle-aged rich man and asked him to borrow a horse.
"Someone, Xiao Liuzi is in the store, you can go and get it......" Looking at the panicked face of the rain, the money shopkeeper replied, but asked again: "What's the matter, is something wrong with the girl?"
"It's okay... It's okay......" replied absentmindedly, and the rain had already squeezed out of the crowd and ran towards the shopkeeper's shop......
In Taiping Town, a sturdy black horse drove out of the town.
On this bright night, the rain rode a black horse on the road, and although it was bumpy, it refused to slow down.
In the depths of the night, a woman in a white dress finally led the horse to the outside of the high-walled compound.
Hanging high under the lantern, she only glanced at it, and regardless of whether it disturbed others or not, stepped forward and knocked on the deadbolt vigorously.
When the door rang, someone answered, but was told that there was no visitor.
The woman reported her name and explained her intentions, but she still didn't let her in, but only persuaded her to leave.
At night that day, the woman in the white dress thought a lot, but she never left. She hid in her body, and the sealed Yuan Ying was almost about to open her eyes, but she silently lowered her head and led the horse and waited silently.
She knew that her sweetheart was fine, but she also vaguely guessed the reason... It's just that she doesn't want to believe it, and she doesn't want to believe it......
In the early morning sun, the door opened, and the woman in the white dress was confused, just looking at it faintly, but she never took a step forward.
The walking passer-by looked at it, but no one dared to ask. The people who came and went to this house would gossip a thing or two, but the woman did not hear it.
Finally, a servant walked out of the door, took out a letter from his bosom, and quietly handed it to the woman.
The woman leading the horse looked at the letter in her hand silently, she didn't open it, but just asked, "Where is Gu Gongzi?"
"Gongzi has been ordered by the emperor to rush to the national capital. Girl, you better go back, what the son has to say is in the letter......" The servant replied, with a hint of helplessness and a hint of emotion in his eyes.
Hearing this, the woman's lips trembled slightly, but she threw the letter on the ground!
The servant didn't try to persuade him to say anything, but looked at the letter that had been thrown on the ground, shook his head, and went back.
The woman did not look at what was to be said in the letter. She just tied her horse to the stone lion and stood alone in front of the gate and waited. She knew that the person she was waiting for hadn't left yet. She also knew that she would not let him go......
'Songyuan Town', outside Gu Dashanren's mansion, a woman in a white dress stood for two days and two nights. Although the servants of the Gu family kept persuading her to leave, they also kept giving her food. But she didn't speak, she didn't eat or drink.
On the night of the third day, it was foggy and raining.
In front of the door of the Gu Mansion, the autumn leaves fell, and the black horse had been untied by the woman, and she went to eat grass alone.
Outside the closed gate, the lantern swayed, and although the woman was holding the stone lion, she also swayed a little.
Without food or drink for three days, no matter how strong this woman in a white dress is, her body will inevitably collapse.
The drizzle wet the woman's skirt and hair, she swayed her body, and when she was about to fall, the door of the Gu family quietly opened a crack.
Dressed in a splendid black robe, the man with high hosta hair walked out.
Tonight, he was dressed in the opposite way from before, as if his heart had changed with his appearance.
When the woman in the white dress saw that the man in the brocade robe finally appeared, she closed her eyes when she was holding her body to not fall.
"Miss Yi is going to serve in the national capital, you can go back......" The man in the brocade robe just stood on the steps, saying calm words from a distance of two feet.
The woman in the white dress heard these words in her ears, but she couldn't help coughing and her body trembled.
Maybe she did it on purpose, or maybe she couldn't hold it anymore because her body was wet with light rain. However, the man did not step forward to caress him, he just stood on the steps, silent.
"Childe, I remember on the 'White Green Mountain', you said that you hope to see the white flowers blooming all over the mountain every year...'Cicada Pavilion', you also said that you want me to play with you every year... Have you forgotten now?" Finally, the woman in the white dress opened her mouth, but she couldn't open her eyes anymore.
The woman said emotionally, but the man turned his head sideways and didn't want to listen!
"Girl, I've been waiting for many years... Just to go to the court one day, and live up to years of silence and hard study. You said that day, let me and the girl go to see your life on the stage, but girl, do you know that I can go on the stage and let others sing the ...... of my life" When he said this, when he said the ambition in his heart, the hand of the man in the brocade robe clenched vigorously.
The sound of the rain became louder and louder, and the man looked at the woman who was alone in the rain, and saw the white dress she was wearing, but his eyes were more determined, and he had already made a choice.
Slowly, the rain swept across her cheeks, and the woman in the white dress finally opened her eyes. She let go of the hand holding the stone lion, and she didn't know whether it was tears or rain in her eyes, and whispered, "I know, I knew it the first time I saw you! Now it seems like I was wishful thinking......"
Under the rain curtain, the woman raised her head and stared at the man who refused to speak again. The man looked at the tenderness between the woman's eyebrows, but slowly closed his eyes.
It seemed that in an instant, the drizzle became a downpour, which seemed to block the view of the two of them, making it difficult for each to see each other.
