The grain in the wine bowl shook slightly, and the hand holding the bowl seemed to be a little weak, and the joints began to faintly white. However, the owner of the hand quickly returned to normal, leveled the wine bowl, bowed his head and drank in silence. If it weren't for the suspicious crimson on both sides of her cheeks, Qi Ye would have thought that her deduction was wrong.

"There are only two people here, me and the girl, I don't know who the girl is referring to?"

Mr. Xiao Lu put down the wine bowl and raised his head, his eyes were flat.

Qi Ye lowered his eyelids, picked up the wine jar, raised his head and drank directly to the mouth. Then there was a "bang", and the jar of wine, which had drunk half of the jar of grain liquid, fell on the table, and she wiped the corners of her mouth with great satisfaction, and let out a soft sigh. These actions were carried out in one go, and a trace of envy flashed in Mr. Xiao Lu's eyes, but they quickly dissipated.

"The girl Lu I know is also a person with little affection. She doesn't seem to be very close to others, self-denial, and pays attention to rules and etiquette in everything. However, Miss Lu chose to teach and educate people as her own responsibility, and spent eight years for the private school. I have seen her with schoolchildren, full of sincerity and gentleness, not at all like a cold person. ”

Speaking of this, Qi Ye asked the person opposite in a unhurried tone, like an old friend: "Mr. Xiao Lu, you say, is this Miss Lu very strange?"

The man on the other side was holding the wine bowl, and several attempts to stabilize the grain and liquid in it that began to tremble lightly were to no avail. He put down the half bowl of wine, and his fingers were unusually cold.

There was silence for a while, and there was a slight jerkiness in the indistinguishable voices of the male and female, and finally, she took a breath a little weakly, "They...... Got it all?"

"Since the gentleman is so secretive, there must be his own reasons. Don't worry, sir, I never talked to anyone about it. ”

Hearing her say this, Mr. Xiao Lu's pale face improved slightly. Lowering her eyebrows, her ten fingers tightly closed and released, she asked Qi Ye, "Then how did you see it?"

"Actually, the gentleman has always covered it up very well. It's just-" In an instant, Qi Ye was in a trance, looking at the uncovered wine jar and said in a daze, "I was deceived by a person before, and he disguised himself as a scoundrel Xiaoer and deliberately stayed by my side. So from that point on, I think that everyone has a mind. ”

Mr. Xiao Lu raised his eyebrows, saw that she suddenly became depressed, and waited quietly for her to pick up the wine jar and finish drinking, and listen to her again.

"Not only that, but I also noticed that although my husband does not like to be close to people, there is a difference between men and women. ”

There was a hint of agility and cunning in the eyes of the woman opposite, and Mr. Xiao Lu picked up the bowl and drank the remaining grain and liquid.

For example, Mr. does not seem to resist the overtures and concern of Aunt Fifth and Miss Yun'er, and keeps a certain distance from Mr. Anonymous and even the old doctor when communicating. At the time, I thought it was strange, but when I thought about it in hindsight, this is the 'difference between men and women' in the number of rites. Otherwise, with Mr.'s respect for etiquette, he wouldn't have let me sit down and drink with you today. After all, you said that men and women do not kiss. Isn't it?"

The analysis is so thorough that it is difficult to refute the teacher even if he has a thousand mouths. Qi Ye shouted towards the account desk, "Xiao Er, come up with two more jars of Bianzhou grain and liquid!"

"Haole!" Xiao Er's movements were very fast, and he came over with two jars of wine. As he approached, he felt the subtle changes between the two guest officers. However, he is just an errand boy in a wine shop, so he can take care of the affairs between the guests.

Qi Ye pushed one of the jars of wine to Mr. Xiao Lu. This time, she didn't refuse again, directly tore the seal on the wine jar, raised her head and poured wine into her mouth.

"Ahem, ahem!"

Xiao Lu put down the wine jar at this time, closed her eyes with difficulty, panted slightly, and let the wine fall down the corners of her mouth. Faced with this sudden move, Qiye was extremely surprised. But she didn't bring a handkerchief when she went out today, so she could only slowly stretch out her hand, pat the back of the man's hand, and said softly: "Ruruo Lu...... If Mr. Lu has any difficulties, he might as well say it. Maybe I can help. ”

"I envy you. ”

There was a soft sound in front of her, Qi Ye was stunned, and when she saw her, she slowly opened her eyes and smiled at herself for the first time.

"The girl is a wandering woman, she should have been to many places, seen a lot of scenery, encountered many strange people and strange things, and even drank to show a heroic spirit. I envy such a girl, but unfortunately I tried it just now, and it really didn't suit me. ”

As if he had been opened up of the conversation, Mr. Xiao Lu smiled bitterly, his eyes returned to calm, and he continued.

She asked Qiye, "What does the girl think of Silu?"

Qi Ye thought for a while, "The rivers and mountains are beautiful, and the scenery is infinite. ”

She continued to ask, "What does the girl think of Bianzhou?"

"A piece of auspicious land, a place of excellence. ”

"What does that girl think of the world?"

Qi Ye was asked for a moment this time, frowned slightly, and said slowly while thinking seriously: "Although there are good and evil, most of them perform their own duties, and reincarnation cause and effect make the world lively, and grievances and revenge will eventually be rewarded." ”

The girl sees the mountain as a mountain and the water as water, and she is indeed a woman with a warm heart. Mr. Xiao Lu stroked his palm, raised his voice slightly, and a fire gathered in his eyes, "It is difficult for such a bright person to see some suffering." I'll ask the girl again, dare to ask the girl what she thinks of the women in the world?"

"The ...... of the world How about a woman?" Qi Ye didn't know why she asked like this, and then she choked completely, and repeated these words with confused eyes.

"I'll tell you. Although I have not traveled all over the world, I know that the women of the same age as girls in Bianzhou City are either still in the boudoir, or they are married and live with their husbands. Since ancient times, the fate of women has been arranged, they are not allowed to be businessmen and officials, they are not allowed to show their faces, they are frivolous and cheap, and blind marriage is the only way out. But what kind of rule is this? Have you ever thought that if she was not a chic and happy chivalrous woman, but like thousands of ordinary women, then where would the girl be at this time, and what would she be doing?"

"I'm not a chivalrous woman...... What are you doing?" Qi Ye muttered, thinking more and more about this question.

Mr. Xiao Lu took a big sip of the wine in the altar again, wiped the corners of his mouth and lowered his voice a little, "I am a scholar, but I don't know the etiquette of women. What those men can do, I will do. Unfortunately, people in the world have a lot of prejudice against women, so I can only disguise myself as I am now. The private school is my heart's trust, and teaching and educating people is my ambition in this life. In my life, I only recognize the word 'sir', abide by the teacher's morality, preach and receive karma, and have no regrets. In the eyes of others, Alu is a 'man' who stands up to the sky!"

Bang –

The empty wine jar instantly fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, and the whole hall was shocked, looking this way. The fire in Mr. Xiao Lu's eyes was extremely bright, as if a hidden fire had been hidden for a long time, illuminating her whole body.

Qi Ye asked himself that from Jinling to Bianzhou, he had never seen her ordinary and special woman, and his heart was quite infected by her. But slowly calming down, a question still arose in Qi Ye's mind.

"Mr. Xiao Lu, in order to preach and receive employment, you are willing to dress up as a man. But have you ever thought that if he meets a good relationship one day, he should ...... it?"

"It's not going to be a good match. Mr. Xiao Lu interrupted her, and replied very firmly, "When Alu vows to dedicate his life to the private school, he will never meet any good fate again." ”

The fire in her eyes dimmed little by little, and her face was as calm as ever.

Qiye opened his mouth at her, but he stopped talking.
