69 But the word is old, and the heart is changeable
The next day, Ji Xiaoduo saw Du Qiao again and gave him fifty taels of silver tickets.
Du Qiao frowned: "What is this?"
Ji Xiaoduo said: "My workshop is about to open, and I have been tossing and improving the fragrance recently, and I must need a lot of seasonal flowers, which is a deposit." ”
When you buy flowers, you don't have to pay for them without seeing them.
Du Qiao is not stupid, and after a little thought, he understands Ji Xiaoduo's intentions.
Ji Xiaoduo was so busy with him that he couldn't go away during this time.
She didn't say it before, because she felt that there was another way to compensate, and it would hurt her feelings to give money.
But her performance in the recent period of time can obviously feel it, and if it is ambiguous, it will hurt her feelings even more.
Just like when she was rescued from the well, because she knew that it was better not to have any more crossings, she had to pay him for jewelry.
Du Qiao suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
This sentiment is very contradictory.
He actually respects Ji Xiaoduo and likes her character, even now, he even feels a little sorry for her.
It was obviously his attitude that broke her heart, but she was still so reasonable.
But...... Looking at Ji Xiaoduo's face, the words "I haven't changed my mind" and "this love is unswerving" can't be spoken.
If it really can't be cured, he really doesn't have the confidence to face such a face for a lifetime.
If it is cured later...... That...... He who has been shaken, what face does he have to face Ji Xiaoduo?
It's that he doesn't deserve such a woman.
His heart was sour, but he still accepted the silver ticket, just like the pearl hairpin he had accepted.
Ji Xiaoduo smiled brightly, "Last time I talked about the porcelain kiln, I asked Brother Du to continue to help me contact it, even if I can't borrow the kiln, I want to order a batch of porcelain boxes first." ”
Of course, the soap of the "high-end product" cannot be wrapped in straw paper like ordinary soap.
Ji Xiaoduo plans to try to use porcelain boxes or bamboo tubes and rattan weaving, in short, get some samples to try first.
It was clear that she and Du Qiao returned to the range of friends, and she asked him for help, which was more natural.
Her attitude made Du Qiao seem to have moved a big stone in his heart, nodded, and responded calmly.
When Zhao Mingxuan came over in the evening, Ji Xiaoduo was sitting under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard drinking.
She hasn't fallen in love with Du Qiao yet, and she hasn't made any clear appointments, and she took the initiative to draw a line with him, which seemed chic and casual at the time, but in the end, there was still a little melancholy in her heart.
Ji Xiaoduo laughed self-deprecatingly.
There are just fewer suitors, what is there to be sad about?
It's really unproductive.
She thought so, but unconsciously remembered a poem.
"If life is only as first seen, what is the autumn wind and sad fan......?
"Who has changed their mind?" Zhao Mingxuan asked.
Ji Xiaoduo was startled, almost jumped up, and saw that it was Zhao Mingxuan, so he sat back again, "Lord Zhao trespassed into the house." Where's my dog?"
Zhao Mingxuan frowned, but still raised his chin towards the corner of the courtyard.
Ji Xiaoduo looked over, and there was indeed a person over there, who was holding her Xiaohei and pinching its mouth. Obviously someone who is usually familiar with Xiao Hei.
"Hey, don't abuse dogs. Ji Xiaoduo said loudly.
Zhao Mingxuan grinded his teeth, he finally came to visit, was her attention only on the dog?
"Why don't you let it make the whole house noisy?"
"Can't you knock on the door and come in?"
Zhao Mingxuan: ......
He hadn't really thought about it at all.
He just wanted to see her and came.
After all, she doesn't live in that small dilapidated house now, this workshop enters three times before and after, knocks on the door and waits for the next person to pass it on, and then waits for her to come out to see him? Zhao Mingxuan didn't have that kung fu.
Besides, in that case, he wouldn't see her drinking and chanting poetry here.
Zhao Mingxuan walked to the table, picked up the wine jug and shook it, frowning, "I drank a lot." ”
"It's ok. Ji Xiaoduo said, "This wine is not high. ”
Zhao Mingxuan knew when he sniffed that it was indeed the kind of rice wine with a little sweetness, not strong, but it was as intoxicating as drinking too much.
"Didn't you move to a new house and open a workshop, why did you borrow wine here to drown your sorrows?"
"Who borrowed wine to drown their sorrows? Can't I have a drink?"
"Okay, who was writing poetry just now to lament the fickleness of people's hearts?"
"Poetry, read it casually. Ji Xiaoduo poured himself another glass of wine and raised his glass, "Raise a glass to invite Mingyue, and the three of them will be ...... And you must drink good wine, get drunk on the moon and ......"
Zhao Mingxuan felt that Ji Xiaoduo was probably a little drunk, so he reached out and took Ji Xiaoduo's cup, "You're drunk." ”
Ji Xiaoduo was indeed a little drunk, but his mind was still sober, and he didn't fight with him, but only asked, "What are you doing today?" Are you afraid that those people in black won't be able to find me if I move?"
Zhao Mingxuan's chest was tightened in one breath, "Can't I just come to see you?"
Ji Xiaoduo pointed to his face, "It's all like this, what's so beautiful?"
Zhao Mingxuan looked at her half-black and half-white face, that little anger was vented again, he put the cup back on the table, reached out and touched her face, "I have something to do tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, I will accompany you to Wangyun Temple the day after tomorrow." ”
"What if Master Guanghua can't be cured?"
Zhao Mingxuan didn't speak for a while, only rubbed her blackened cheek lightly with his fingers.
Ji Xiaoduo drank wine, his face was hot, he only felt that his hands were cold and comfortable, and he didn't move for a while.
Zhao Mingxuan lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
Ji Xiaoduo was startled and leaned back reflexively.
Zhao Mingxuan could only let go of her lips and hugged her waist instead, "Be careful." ”
But when Ji Xiaoduo stood firm, he didn't let go.
It was okay that he didn't stretch out his hand, but at this time, the nephrite was warm and fragrant in his arms, and he suddenly began to miss her.
Ji Xiaoduo could see the rising desire in his eyes, but he couldn't break away from him, so he could only sigh and ask, "Are you a pervert?"
Zhao Mingxuan seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water on his head, and glared at her angrily, "Shut up." ”
"It's okay to talk to a face like this, isn't it a pervert?"
Zhao Mingxuan grinded his teeth, "If you say one more word, I'll do it for you here." ”
Ji Xiaoduo obediently shut up.
She felt that Zhao Mingxuan probably really did it.
Zhao Mingxuan took a deep breath before he said softly, "I don't care what your face is. ”
Ji Xiaoduo raised his eyebrows in disbelief, Du Qiao's example is there, how can there be a man who is not lustful, but looking at Zhao Mingxuan's eyes, he still closed his mouth and did not speak.
Zhao Mingxuan saw it, snorted lightly, and said, "I don't care if you were a person before, how can I care about your face?"
Ji Xiaoduo was suddenly choked.
suddenly remembered that when Qiu Yangzi pointed out that she was borrowing a corpse to return to Yang, he really didn't have a panicked reaction, and he didn't ask her original identity at all.
Fortunately, she was originally a woman, if it was a bald uncle who picked his feet and wore a rough man and a woman, or some strange monster who took away the house, is he also a vegetarian?
It's scary to think about.
Or maybe he thought about this too much and didn't dare to ask at all, right?
It's good to be a woman now.
Zhao Mingxuan also seemed to realize what she was thinking, and suddenly he was a little embarrassed, coughed lightly, let go of her, and took out a piece of paper from his arms to give her, "Congratulations on moving to a house." ”
Ji Xiaoduo took it and saw that it was a lease of a shop, the area was not large, but the location was on East Street, the location was not bad, and the rent had been paid for a year.
Ji Xiaoduo's eyes widened, and then he glanced at Zhao Mingxuan suspiciously, "No conditions?"
Zhao Mingxuan: ......
Without saying a word, he turned and walked away.
Ji Xiaoduo tilted her head, but she became more and more vigilant in her heart.
How could pie fall from the sky for no reason?
