Chapter 101: A jar of osmanthus wine
Zhou Xuanyi was ambiguous, but that expression, even if Zhao He was a wooden man, he could see that he was a little tired, and his heart was clear at once, he was more or less a little like Zhou Xuanyi, and he was also more concerned about this zodiac card.
Bian Qinghe's East Gate Theater is opposite, when the store was opened, it was deliberately opened at the door of the 100-year-old Fang, Bian Qinghe likes to come to Zhaohe if he has nothing to do. As soon as Bian Qinghe entered the door, he saw Zhou Xuanyi and Zhao He alone, Zhao Hu was helping to take care of business at the front desk, and there were only two of them in the back hall.
Zhao He didn't react when he heard it, and raised his eyes to look at him.
Bian Qinghe was angry, Zhou Xuanyi was really annoying, and he even had the courage to covet his family. The tone was not good at the moment, and he said, "What are you doing here?"
Zhou Xuanyi didn't know why, after coming to Liuyin Lane, he liked to make people angry, he usually didn't feel much about teasing Fucheng, but he had a sense of accomplishment when he saw Bian Qinghe's deflated appearance, and said, "What's the matter with you?"
Bian Qinghe was choked, so he had to ask Zhao He, "What is he looking for you for?"
If anyone doesn't know, at first glance, they think that Bian Qinghe is here to catch the traitor.
Zhao He glanced at Zhou Xuanyi expressionlessly, Zhou Xuanyi shook his head gently at Bian Qinghe when he couldn't see him, Zhao He is a person with professional ethics and knows how to protect the privacy of Kerao, so he said: "Secret." ”
Zhao He's simplicity, but in Bian Qinghe's opinion, he is even more angry, okay! These two people are still making secrets behind their backs! Bian Qinghe immediately pointed at Zhou Xuanyi and said, "You get out of here." ”
"Oh," Zhou Xuanyi replied, and really walked out, anyway, things were all clear.
As soon as he lifted the curtain, he heard Zhao He's words: "Why are you saying that?"
Bian Qinghe snorted and said, "Don't talk to him in the future." ”
Zhou Xuanyi smiled, thinking that this Bian Qinghe really couldn't bear his temper and was going to quarrel with Zhao He.
Zhao Hu was originally helping outside, but suddenly heard the voices of the two fathers inside loud and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Xuanyi shook his head innocently and said, "I don't know." ”
Zhao Hu is probably used to the quarrel between his two fathers, but there are still guests outside, for fear of some strange words coming out of Bian Qinghe's mouth, Zhao Hu opened the curtain and joined the persuasion team.
Zhou Xuanyi rarely acts alone, I don't know if it's because he made a thing for him with Fucheng on his back, or because the assassination for many days has finally ended, Zhou Xuanyi feels very relaxed when he walks.
When he entered the broken temple, Jin Ling and Fu Cheng were there, probably waiting for him, and Fu Cheng said as soon as he saw Zhou Xuanyi: "Hurry up and go." ”
"What for?" Zhou Xuanyi asked a little puzzled.
"Go out to buy something," Fu Cheng and Jin Ling took out Zhou Xuanyiyang, who had just entered the door, and said, "The door will close later." ”
"What's closed?" Zhou Xuanyi asked, and at this time, he was all arched out of Fucheng.
"Jin Ling wants to buy fifteen things," Fu Cheng said, "buy a bunch of them,"
"What do you want me to do when you buy something?" Zhou Xuanyi asked.
Jin Ling's face was happy, and he said, "It's like a family to buy it." ”
Zhou Xuanyi originally wanted to do something, but his heart was warmed by this sentence, what about the family.
Jin Ling and Fu Cheng didn't have much reaction to this sentence, they were probably used to it, Fu Cheng stabbed Zhou Xuanyi, smiled a little gloating, and said, "Someone finally suffered with me this year." ”
Jin Ling likes to have festivals, and she doesn't care if this festival has anything to do with her, such as the Qiqiao Festival, let alone the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Jin Ling doesn't spend much money on weekdays, even if Fu Cheng gives her a lot of pocket money, there are almost no big expenses, but every time she comes to the festival, Fu Cheng understands what a real woman is.
In order to have a Mid-Autumn Festival, I bought a bunch of ingredients for making moon cakes, and I also bought a pair of red candles, incense burners, rabbits, and the only thing that made Fucheng more satisfied was a jar of osmanthus wine. But these things are dead, Fu Cheng and Zhou Xuanyi carried them all the way, while following behind Jin Ling, Princess Jin was almost out of sight to buy something, and was looking for the picture of the Moon Palace where the jade rabbit was pounding medicine all over the street.
"When did you get tired of her?" Fu Cheng asked quietly, Fu Cheng and Jin Ling bought things all the way to the black.
Zhou Xuanyi looked indifferent, he used to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival in the palace, these things were all the women of the harem who were busy working, he only knew that the palace ladies were busy during that time, and the placement of the statue of the god in a month could pull out a lot of allusions, but he had never participated in it, and felt that these things were quite interesting, and said: "Let her have fun." ”
Zhou Xuanyi's unconscious words made Fu Cheng stunned, and he could hardly believe that these words came out of Zhou Xuanyi's mouth. He and Zhou Xuanyi have known each other for more than a month, and they have seen Zhou Xuanyi change a little. When Zhou Xuanyi first came to break the temple, the thorn made Fu Cheng annoyed to look at it, and Fu Cheng at that time would never have thought that there would be a week when Xuanyi would follow Jin Ling's ass obediently shopping without complaints.
After more than a month, Zhou Xuanyi seems to have been polished clean and softened a lot.
Is it because of yourself? Impossible, right?
Fu Cheng was scared of this idea, he turned his head to look at Zhou Xuanyi, Fu Cheng took more things as a matter of course, Zhou Xuanyi only held a jar of osmanthus wine in his arms, which was snatched from thirty or forty people when he went to the Liu family's wine cellar just now.
Suzhou is too remote to grow osmanthus flowers, can only be transported from the Central Plains, the three of them just went to the Liu family wine cellar to get wine, many people are robbing, Fucheng is unwilling to be next to people, even if it is greedy, I don't want to fight, I can't drink at most I will be disappointed for a while. Fucheng is like this, there is no obsession in life, even if you want to, you don't want to grab it, it seems that what is his, it is his, and it is not just fate.
If you don't strive for it, you don't have extravagant hopes, and you can live your life casually.
Jin Ling got used to his angry look, and pulled Zhou Xuanyi into the crowd, and finally Zhou Xuanyi came out of the messy crowd with a jar of wine.
Fu Cheng still remembered the way he came out with the wine, his cold face changed a little, his eyebrows were hanging, and his eyes were a little crooked, as if he had grabbed some treasure.
At that time, he said to Fu Cheng: "I grabbed it for you." ”
Zhou Xuanyi obviously just made a simple statement, but Fu Cheng felt a little warm in his heart, and no one had helped him grab anything when he was so big.
Fucheng's heart, which has not fluctuated for more than ten years, has finally loosened the soil a little, and something is about to poke out its teeth.
"What are you looking at?" Fu Cheng was thinking about things, and was taken aback by Zhou Xuanyi so much, Zhou Xuanyi got too close, and Fu Cheng almost didn't hold what he was holding.
"I didn't see anything...... "Fu Cheng was a little weak.
"Oh," Zhou Xuanyi smiled, Fu Cheng was so interesting, and said, "I'll be watching me." ”
Fu Cheng became even more empty-hearted, and said, "What do I think you are doing?"
"Good looking. Zhou Xuanyi came out with these two words without thinking. This sentence is quite narcissistic, but the main Zhou Xuanyi is really good-looking, and it sounds like there is nothing wrong with it at all
Fu Cheng suddenly remembered that when Zhou Xuanyi first met the prince Li Jianqing, Fu Cheng looked good in order to tease him, and Zhou Xuanyi despised him at that time, and now he has become so cheeky, I don't know who he is learning.
Fu Cheng was just thinking about something to push back, when suddenly his feet froze, and he felt that a gaze behind him had been glued to him.
Fu Cheng reacted immediately, these two assassinations were too tight, Fu Cheng forgot that there was still this matter to deal with, so he exaggeratedly shouted: "Oops." ”
Zhou Xuanyi stopped to look at him, thinking to himself, what happened to these two fools?
Jin Ling, who walked to the front, also stopped, but she was anxious to buy something, stopped ten meters away from Fucheng, and stared at him with an unkind expression, meaning, hurry up and solve your bad matter, don't delay the old lady.
Fu Cheng pushed the things in his hand to Zhou Xuanyi and said, "I have a stomachache, you go first." ”
Zhou Xuanyi looked at him suspiciously, Fu Cheng's acting skills were too inferior, and everyone could see that he was tired, but he didn't break it, and quietly watched Fu Cheng act. After Fu Cheng handed over the things to Zhou Xuanyi, he ran away, leaving Zhou Xuanyi in place, and the things in his hand were almost so many that he couldn't hold them.
Jin Ling walked over from the front and asked, "What's wrong with him?"
"It's diarrhea. Zhou Xuanyi hooked the fallen wine jar with his feet, and just hooked the wine jar, the basket containing the red candle on the other side also fell, but Zhou Xuanyi only had two hands and two feet, and could only watch him fall down.
Jin Ling saw that he was so tired, came over to take a hand, took the bamboo basket that was falling with one hand, and then helped Zhou Xuanyi share a lot of things, and when the two of them were hugged, Jin Ling said, "Don't you think it's strange?"
Zhou Xuanyi said: "I think." He replied too calmly, as if it was none of his business.
Jin Lingshen mysteriously leaned over and said, "Aren't you afraid that Fucheng will find a fox spirit outside?"
"Fox spirit?" Zhou Xuanyi said, he had never thought about it in this regard, the wooden head of Fucheng could understand the matter of feelings, and he had already burned high incense, the real Zhou Xuanyi only worried about how others treated Fucheng, and he never thought about how Fucheng would treat others, but he suddenly remembered the long-lost question, who was Ran Di behind Fucheng before Shangzheng Xuanshan?
Did Fu Cheng go to see him?
Thinking like this, Zhou Xuanyi suddenly had a sense of zero crisis, and then his face turned cold.
Jin Ling saw that Zhou Xuanyi's face had changed, and she knew that there was a drama in this matter, so she continued to fan the flames and said, "Why don't you take a look?"
As soon as Fu Cheng handed over the things to Zhou Xuanyi, he ran quickly, and when he rushed to an alley, the alley poked out a thief's eyebrow and a mouse-eyed head, Fu Cheng saw that no one was following him, and pushed the man in, and his voice became cold, and said, "Didn't you ask you not to come to me?" Jin Ling was very interested in helping Zhou Xuanyi catch the fox spirit, but he didn't know where to start, Fu Cheng disappeared too fast, Jin Ling didn't know where to find someone, Jin Ling said: "I didn't see where I went." ”
At this time, Zhou Xuanyi spoke, saying, "He didn't run out of the main street, he should be in the first few alleys." ”
Jin Ling looked at Zhou Xuanyi a little surprised, this person looked light and light, in fact, he knew the whereabouts of Fucheng clearly, it was estimated that as soon as Fucheng ran out on the front foot, Zhou Xuanyi knew in his heart where he was.
No wonder he was so calm, it turned out that no matter how Fu Cheng jumped, he couldn't escape from the palm of his hand.
On the one hand, Jin Ling admired Zhou Xuanyi a little, and on the other hand, he felt that Zhou Xuanyi was a little scary, and he felt people clearly without moving.
Knowing the direction, it was much easier to find, and sure enough, as Zhou Xuanyi expected, they only found four alleys, and then they saw Fucheng's figure at the mouth of the fifth alley.
Zhou Xuanyi stretched out her hand to stop it, meaning not to go any further, and Jin Ling obediently stopped, she often hid behind Fucheng, knowing what kind of distance was safer for Fucheng.
From this angle, you can only see the back of Fucheng, the Fucheng people are so tall that they almost cover the person opposite, only revealing a skirt corner, and it seems to be a woman.
Jin Ling was a little puzzled and said, "Why is it a woman?"
Zhou Xuanyi followed Jin Ling's words and said, "Aren't all fox spirits women?"
"No......" Jin Ling was a little happy, she didn't expect Zhou Xuanyi to really answer his words, although these words sounded gritted teeth, Jin Ling said: "There are also male vixens, can you hear anything about them?"
Jin Ling listened with his ears for a while, but he didn't hear anything, people who practice martial arts are more alert than ordinary people, Zhou Xuanyi's martial arts are above Jin Ling, and it is estimated that he can hear more than her.
Zhou Xuanyi frowned, he didn't hear anything specific, he only felt that Fu Cheng's tone was a little rushed, and said, "It seems to be arguing." ”
"Quarrel?" Jin Ling has zero interest, if the situation is not right, he really wants to take out a handful of melon seeds. Zhou Xuanyi's face became colder and colder, and Jin Ling thought that the days in Fucheng would not be easy tonight.
Just thinking about it, the two seemed to have a talk, Fu Cheng took out a shining silver thing from his arms, Zhou Xuanyi's first reaction was a knife, and when he looked at it, he saw that it was a piece of silver, at this time, Zhou Xuanyi felt that things were not quite right, if he saw the fox, why should he give silver?
If the two of them are trading power, it will be even more incompatible, Fu Cheng doesn't like to contact others at all, such a person, can have this kind of thing with another person, Zhou Xuanyi doesn't think it's right.
After Fu Cheng gave the money, it seemed to be quiet over there, and she took the money and was about to leave. It is impossible for Zhou Xuanyi and Jin Ling to bump into Fu Cheng here, Fu Cheng's temper, if he knew what he would think, Zhou Xuanyi just wanted to pull Jin Ling to retreat first, but he didn't expect Jin Ling to be stunned.
"Jin Ling?" Zhou Xuanyi shouted.
But Jin Ling didn't react, seeing that the woman was getting closer and closer, Zhou Xuanyi almost dragged Jin Ling away. When the man got close enough to see his appearance, Jin Ling was so shocked that his hand loosened, and the red candle ingredients in his hand rolled out in a smoke, and the red fruit stopped in front of Fu Cheng's toes in a circle.
Zhou Xuanyi and Jin Ling just took a look at Fu Cheng.
Zhou Xuanyi felt that Jin Ling was a little wrong, and it was because of that woman that he looked at her more at this time. She was wearing coarse linen clothes, she was an elderly woman, she looked forty or fifty years old if she was not properly maintained, she didn't seem to have good eyes, she didn't even look at Zhou Xuanyi and Jin Ling, this alley can lead to Taibai Street, and it is normal to meet people. But she had a ghost in her heart, and glanced back at Fu Cheng, who frowned at her and said, "Get out." ”
The woman was probably a little afraid of Fu Cheng, so she hugged the silver in her arms tightly and left immediately.
After the woman walked away, Jin Ling said, "Why?"
Fu Cheng was a little panicked for a moment, he didn't expect Jin Ling to follow all the way, and said, "What are you doing here?"
Jin Ling's expression was something Zhou Xuanyi had never seen before, and she said a little sadly: "She didn't recognize me?"
Zhou Xuanyi listened to the words of Fu Cheng and Jin Ling, and guessed a little bit of useful information, this woman is afraid that she has a little relationship with Jin Ling, but what is the specific origin, Zhou Xuanyi can't guess.
Jin Ling asked again, this time her body trembled a little, and said, "Why? Why did you give her money?"
Fu Cheng looked at Jin Ling with a complicated expression, as if he didn't know how to get up, and finally sighed and said, "She...... After all, it's your mother, and I can't leave her alone. ”
Zhou Xuanyi chuckled in his heart, he always thought that Jin Ling had no father and no mother, and was an orphan who had been with Fucheng since then, but he didn't expect her to have a mother, and she was also in Bailu City, Zhou Xuanyi felt that this matter was a bit weird, after all, the two of them were in Bailu City, but the mother and daughter did not meet.
"Hehe," Jin Ling suddenly laughed, she looked at Fu Cheng a little sneeringly, and said, "Do you give her money when you come to any person? Why are you so kind that you are not a living bodhisattva?"
Jin Ling's words were too heavy, Zhou Xuanyi frowned, he had never heard Jin Ling talk to Fucheng like this, although she was a dog city, she had never been so sarcastic with a gun and a stick.
Fu Cheng didn't say anything, and Jin Ling continued: "You know that she did such a thing to me, you are still so good to her, a woman like her deserves to die!"
Fu Cheng shouted, "Suzuko!" He didn't know what kind of ugly words Jin Ling would say.
Jin Ling clenched her fists tightly, and her long bangs blocked most of her sad expression, but Zhou Xuanyi still saw it, and the wet part of Jin Ling's chin was shining with tears. I've known each other for so long, and it's the first time I've seen Jin Ling cry.
"You don't care about me at all!" Jin Ling ran away after saying this.
Although Zhou Xuanyi didn't know what the specific reason was, he couldn't let Jin Ling run around outside, stuffed all the things in his hand into Fu Cheng's arms, and said, "I'll chase her." Then he chased him out.
Jin Ling ran at full speed so that Zhou Xuanyi almost lost it, and when he was at a loss, a finger stretched out from the depths of the wall, and a slender finger was wrapped in a wide sleeve, and Zhou Xuanyi immediately recognized that it was a yellow flower.
Huang Hua pointed her finger at the top, and at the same time frowned, a little worried. Zhou Xuanyi followed the direction of Huang Hua's finger and looked all the way.
The last place Jin Ling went to was the city tower, Bailu City did not close the city at night, there were only two people standing guard in the city tower, and anyone could come up. The perspective of the city tower is not as good as the bell tower, but Zhou Xuanyi knew why Jin Ling came here as soon as he came up, and he saw the entire west city of Bailu City here. Zhou Xuanyi walked to Jin Ling's side, the two of them didn't speak, and stood side by side on the city tower looking at the city.
In the end, it was Jin Ling who spoke first, she had cried just now, her voice was still a little hoarse, and said, "Have you always wanted to ask me what my relationship is with Fucheng?"
Jin Ling didn't explain his abnormality, but instead started Fucheng first. Zhou Xuanyi snorted, and Jin Ling said to herself: "I heard it when you quarreled last time, you think I am a substitute ghost raised by Fucheng." "In Yang Lei's night attack on the second temple, Zhou Xuanyi had doubts about the relationship between Fucheng and Jin Ling, and the two had a quarrel.
It turned out that Jin Ling had always known, but he had never dismantled it, and he didn't want to explain.
"Don't doubt him, Fucheng is a good man. There aren't many people out there who are so nice. "Jin Ling has always been the bark of Dog City Dog City, Fu Cheng has raised Jin Ling for so many years and has not heard Jin Ling praise him, but Jin Ling just ridiculed Fu Cheng as a living Bodhisattva, Zhou Xuanyi couldn't hear whether Jin Ling was mocking or really complimenting.
Jin Ling smiled and said, "I, this life was saved by Fucheng." ”
Jin Ling didn't need Zhou Xuanyi to respond, and said to himself: "It stands to reason, after the rescue, they will go to one side and two clear, I have to rely on him to learn kung fu, Fucheng was still a blue guest at that time, I relied on him with a dead face, just to let him not leave me." Fucheng is a good master, he taught me how to kill people and how to live. ”
The misunderstanding between Zhou Xuanyi and Fu Cheng had already been clarified, but he still felt strange when he heard Jin Ling. Zhou Xuanyi suddenly had a feeling of sudden enlightenment, before he assassinated Zhang Jinsheng, he always felt that Fucheng looked soft and soft, and he couldn't kill people, so his kung fu should be average. But he never thought about it from a different angle, Fu Cheng could teach Jin Ling such a skill, and his strength would not be bad.
Jin Ling was very proud when she spoke, the girl's eyebrows were raised high, and she seemed to be very happy when she met Fu Cheng, and said: "Kung Fu has been learned, but I still rely on him, I quietly follow him wherever he goes, Fu Cheng can't drive me away, he can't kill people, it's too bad to fight with people, once he was dying, I killed that person from behind." Fu Cheng and that person were startled, that person's eyes were staring before he died, how could he have thought that there would be a girl hiding in a tree? Fu Cheng's life was also saved by my aunt and grandmother. ”
"Later, I became the knife behind Fucheng, don't look at me, I am the lifesaver of Fucheng, if it weren't for me, Fucheng would have died more than eight hundred times. ”
When Jin Ling spoke, he didn't have any reverence for killing, as if killing was killing, and being able to kill the person who threatened Fucheng was an indescribable blessing of achievement
Jin Ling doesn't have any sense of justice, all her values are based on Fucheng alone, those who hurt Fucheng are bad people, and those who like Fucheng are good people. This is also why Jin Ling likes Zhou Xuanyi, and she spent the rest of her life trying to repay Fucheng for living.
Zhou Xuanyi listened to the past when Jin Lingqi and Fucheng met for the first time, listened to Jin Ling's words, and asked casually: "Why are you so good to him?" Zhou Xuanyi was puzzled, Jin Ling was willing to be a knife behind Fucheng, and implemented Fucheng's will from beginning to end. How much kindness does Fucheng have to Jin Ling?
"Hello others, I don't have anywhere to go. Jin Ling's voice suddenly weakened, probably thinking of the quarrel with Fucheng, she stood on tiptoe, like a restless girl.
Jin Ling kept staring at her toes, she was just when she was growing her body, her feet were one to the largest, and a hole was ground out in the embroidered shoes. Fu Cheng is a big man, but he always carefully picks embroidered shoes for Jin Ling, Fu Cheng picks embroidered shoes and looks very embarrassed, but he can still buy them back and wear them on Jin Ling's growing feet, thinking of this, Jin Ling regretted a little, and said: "Actually, it's nothing to tell you, I haven't done anything to others." ”
Zhou Xuanyi froze in place and didn't squeak.
Jin Ling took a deep breath, pointed to the jade belt lit up in Xicheng, and said slowly: "I'm from Baihua Street." ”
Jin Ling's voice slowly lowered, but every word was extremely clear, it was impossible for her to change this in her life, her background was not good.
Zhou Xuanyi frowned, although he guessed most of it, but when he heard this come out of Jin Ling's mouth, he still felt panicked, especially Jin Ling's casual appearance, which made people even more uncomfortable.
"And then?" Zhou Xuanyi heard his voice dry.
"My mother is a woman from Baihua Street, my father, out of this door, anyone can be my father. Jin Ling wanted to make a joke, but she couldn't laugh herself, "My mother was very beautiful when she was young, and at that time she mixed up the flower cards that she mixed up and was popular to work alone in the building, but she was unlucky, she came out to work for a year, and the business was getting worse and worse, and there was no shortage of women in Baihua Street." ”
Halfway through Jin Ling, she felt a sense of irony, and her mother didn't recognize her.
When Zhou Xuanyi heard this, he immediately understood Jin Ling's strange expression just now. Jin Ling's mother did such an excessive thing to Jin Ling, and Fu Cheng was still secretly helping her.
Jin Ling was very difficult when she spoke, she had never explained these things to others, and she was somewhat unaccustomed to it. Jin Ling took a deep breath and said, "My mother has no business, so she hit me with the idea." ”
Jin Ling stopped here, and what she didn't exit was that the first person she killed was not killed for Fu Cheng, but her benefactor.
