(7) Qingming

In the twilight of spring, catkins are flying everywhere along the river in Luqiao Town, and time flies.

On this day, in the stove room of the academy, everyone was eating lunch, and a woman was eating silently with her head down.

In the past few days, I have free time to embroider in the room, and embroider a piece, plus the previous one is two finished products, and a semi-finished product, and also made two semi-finished purses, tonight she wants to stay up late to make a good purse.

But if Fan Gongzi is there at night~

While eating, she began to think about how to kick him out tonight~

But after a long time, everyone finished lunch and wanted to go back to their rooms for a lunch break, An Yue and Fan Gongzi walked side by side, did not speak, and walked to the door of their respective rooms, An Yue whispered to Fan Gongzi: "You will come to me in a while." ”

Fan Wenshu was a little surprised, during the lunch break on weekdays, they all went back to the room to rest, but he still responded.

He thought that the two of them had slept together at night in the past few days, could it be that she wanted to sleep together during the lunch break in the future?

That's pretty good, he thought for a moment.

An Yue looked at the expression on his face and suddenly wanted to laugh, but she didn't pay attention to him anymore, and casually pushed open the door and entered her room.

After a while, the guy really pushed open her door and came in, and quickly closed the door with his backhand, An Yue, who was lying on the bed, didn't have to look at it, he could imagine his backhand closing the door, and felt more and more funny in his heart, and when she heard the sound of him walking, she pulled the thin quilt to cover her head.

Fan Wenshu had already bypassed the screen, and saw that the beauty on the bed covered his head with a thin quilt, he didn't speak, he only took off his coat and put it on the screen, and skillfully took off his boots, and then quickly got into her thin quilt, An Yue looked at his movements, and quickly said: "Sleep, I'm very sleepy~"

She shrunk into a ball as she spoke.

The man saw her huddle up again, moved closer to her, and then reached out and took her into his arms.

Under the quilt, in his arms, her warm and soft body, with a faint fragrance, her very delicate and seductive curves.

Everything reminded him that the body in his arms was very different from his own mature male body, and she moved a little restlessly, her legs moved, accidentally touching his lower abdomen, and then he felt his body burn a little.

He wanted to sleep with her in his arms honestly, but how would he sleep here?

He lowered his head, leaned into her neck socket, smelled the fragrance that belonged to her, and then said softly, "Can you help me?"

The figure in his arms was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red, what helped him?

She didn't want to help him, she didn't want to ignore him, she didn't want to pay attention to him.

She remembered him that day......

Her face burned again, she didn't want to help him anyway, such a shameful thing, she still remembered the burning sensation of holding that thing in her hand, it was really burning......

Can you help?

She remembered him again after she didn't help him last night......

Her face burned even more.

The man holding her saw that she didn't answer, thinking of last night, he moved his body, and leaned into her ear again, the breath was already a little heavy, and the heavy breath exhaled in her ear socket, only to hear the man say: "If you don't want to help, like last night, it's okay." ”

Then he leaned over again, without waiting for her to answer......

After a long time, behind the screen, there was a faint musky fragrance, and the somewhat satisfied man was really honest this time, and he was lying quietly with the woman in his arms in his arms.

At this time, the woman's dress in his arms was a little messy, and the emptiness under the dress made her a little uneasy, the man beside her was too shameless, she didn't want to help him with her hands~

He will be~

When she thought about it, she was so ashamed that she was tired, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

For a long time, the scene in the room was harmonious, and the handsome man wore a Chinese coat and hugged a bright woman who was also wearing a middle coat and fell asleep.

After resting for a while and getting up, An Yue corrected a few students' homework, and Fan Gongzi was by her side, and An Yue would no longer pay attention to him.

The man flattered her pitifully and aggrievedly, and helped her correct the rest of her student homework, and pinched her shoulder, almost pinching her calf.

But An Yue still ignored him.

He's so shameless.

Fan Gongzi is also aggrieved, he holds a beautiful woman all day long to rest, but he can't really touch it, he has to ask her to help him with her hands, is it too much?

But sometimes she was unwilling, but he was interested, and he had to send the arrow, so he had to think of a way, and if he couldn't really touch it, then ......

If you touch it outside, it won't hurt her, and she won't hold herself.

He continued to please her in the room, and finally he did.

At this time, the atmosphere in the room was better, and the buds outside the court began to bloom, and they returned to dust.

An Yue in the room slowly embroidered the embroidered handkerchief and began to make the semi-finished purse again.

After Fan Gongzi flattered her, he leaned on her side again, looking at the purse she made from time to time, his eyes flashed, a few days ago, An Yue promised him to give him a purse, isn't this it?

He looked at the purse and began to have some faint anticipation in his heart, and began to fantasize about the scene of tying this purse around his waist, and then his face was full of smiles.

An Yue looked at Fan Wenshu beside him, but thought in his heart how to talk to him at night?

The two have slept together every day these days, and she is also a little used to him by her side, although he is sometimes very shameless~

An Yue thought about it, and couldn't just say, "I'm going to make a purse overnight tonight, and I'll sleep late, so you can go to sleep first, right?"

She shook her head, if she said that, he would definitely force her to rest earlier, she thought about it again, forget it, let's talk about it in the evening.

Soon it was evening, everyone had finished eating, and today's Granny Niu still returned home first.

In fact, Granny Niu's family is not bad, she doesn't need to come to this academy to cook to earn this silver, she is a person from Luqiao Town, and married in Luqiao Town, the husband and wife are harmonious, and there are three sons, the eldest son did the county government to catch fast, married a few years ago, gave birth to twins, and the family is harmonious. The second son also went to the county, did a small business by himself, earned some money, married a wife, and added a big fat boy and a daughter. These two daughters-in-law were very filial to her and her wife, silver clothes and medicinal supplements were delivered on time every quarter, and her youngest son, that is, the third son, opened a grocery store in the town at a young age, reselling goods, business was booming, and people were also filial.

Speaking of which, in this Luqiao town and nearby villages, I don't know how many girls are vying to marry her little son.

Not only because Granny Niu's youngest son has a smart mind and a good family background, but also because her youngest son has a good appearance, a gentle temperament, and is polite, and looks like a humble gentleman.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why his grocery store is doing well.

It stands to reason that Granny Niu doesn't need to come out to work to earn money, but Granny Niu was diligent when she was young, and she can't be idle when she is old, her idea is to earn some if she can.

Fortunately, her wife also supports her, not only supports her, but also comes to pick her up every night, and she goes back early these days, all because her wife went out to find her eldest son in the county.

As soon as Granny Niu left, the matter of washing pots and dishes was taken over by An Yue, but it fell from An Yue's body to Fan Gongzi.

Tonight, An Yue was thinking about things in his heart, watching him wash the pot and wash the dishes, and reached out and touched his chest, a little grateful.

These things were originally her own business, but now he is a son who does these things because of himself.

She glanced at his hands washing the dishes and chopsticks again, and the white hands were already stained with oil~

She looked at his hand, gritted her teeth, and looked at him like this, she really wanted to ask, is this him now, or the man who said he would leave because of a letter from another woman?

Thinking of the letter, she only felt bitter and astringent in her heart.

I can't see through it, I still can't see through it.

But now, it's true that he's good to himself.

She smiled bitterly again, thought about it, got up and went to make a fire first, boiled the water, and when the water boiled, Fan Gongzi's dishes and chopsticks had been washed, An Yue looked at him and said, "I have already boiled the water, wash up and rest early." ”

Fan Gongzi looked at her, heard her say rest early, and thought that he could sleep with her in his arms at night, he was a little excited in his heart, and nodded and said, "Okay." ”

The two of them washed up separately, blew out the oil lamp in the stove, and closed the door.

Only then did she go to the room, An Yue opened the door, entered, she turned around and stopped Fan Wenshu with her petite body, Fan Wenshu looked at her with some doubts, only to see her smile mischievously: "I won't let you in tonight, I will get up early tomorrow morning and go home, you sleep with me, I sleep deeply, and... I'm a little tired, I'm afraid I won't be able to get up early tomorrow morning~" She opened her big moist eyes and looked at him pitifully and coquettishly.

Fan Gongzi looked at her like this, thought of how tired she said, and thought of napping~

Indeed, he didn't dare to guarantee that he wouldn't "mess" with her tonight.

He laughed a little in his heart, reached out and touched her cheek, and said again, "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”

"Hmm~I'll see you after Qingming~" An Yue smiled sweetly at him.

"Good. ”

Fan Gongzi touched her cheek, his eyes were full of affection.

The two seem to have gone back to the way they used to be, and she is the same as before.

Her estrangement seemed like a dream the other day.

An Yue also smiled at him and said, "Go to sleep, obedient~"

Fan Gongzi nodded and withdrew his hand, "Yes to you." ”

Then she closed the door, and it wasn't until she heard the footsteps of Fan Gongzi leaving, she leaned her back against the door frame, and sighed deeply, thinking of his smile, thinking of the attachment on his face, and thinking of the Qingming in her previous life......

She closed her eyes, leaned her back against the door frame, and crouched down.

After a while, she looked up, her extraordinarily moist eyes were a little ruddy, and a little red and swollen, and she stood up and walked towards the desk in the room, her hanging sleeves wet in large chunks, and she looked a little gray in the empty room.

She picked up her unfinished purse and put it under the oil lamp, and continued to do it as if nothing had happened.

In the quiet of the night, it is very easy to break down, and the woman, quietly making a purse under the oil lamp, no one knows how entangled and uncomfortable her collapse is.

Fortunately, the silent night will soon pass.

Early in the morning, An Yue got up early to pack up, first went to the grocery store of the third son of Granny Niu's family in the town, and bought some things at the morning market, and then got into a carriage back to the village.

A carriage was heading from Luqiao Town to Baishui Village, and on the carriage sat An Yue, along with two other little girls, and two aunts who looked young. One of the women in the purple dress on the car held her mouth to the other girl in a pale pink Luo skirt, and then glanced at An Yue on the side of the ox cart in front of her eyes, the girl in the pale pink dress looked at An Yue sitting on the side, the corners of her mouth showed sarcasm, and she glanced at the woman in the purple dress, and the two understood, and looked at An Yue from the beginning.

An Yue tore her face with them earlier, so she naturally didn't bother with them, only greeted the two aunts, chatted a few more words, and arrived at the entrance of Baizhu Village, she got out of the carriage, took out the copper plate from the package she was carrying, paid the copper plate to Uncle Li, who was driving the carriage, and slowly walked to the small courtyard at the head of the village.

The two girls on the ox cart saw her back getting farther and farther away, one of them sneered and snorted, and the other also glanced at the back and then got out of the carriage and paid the copper plate to Uncle Li who was driving the carriage.

The woman who got off the carriage behind, one is called Zhu Mian, she is the youngest daughter of the village chief of An Yue, and the other is called Zhu Hui, she is the young daughter of Lizheng, they grew up with An Yue since childhood, one year younger than An Yue, really small, they also played together when they were young, the three of them are like sisters, but the feelings between women in this world are more curved, and the good sisters of the past are not good sisters for a long time, not only that, but there may be more malice in their hearts than others.

The two ladies in the carriage looked at the three girls who had already gotten off the carriage and walked farther and farther, and one of them said to the aunt who was familiar with her: "That An Yue, that appearance is good, that appearance is considered to be the best in our town, but it's a pity~"

"That girl is really bright, she looked good when she was young, and now she is really bright and moving~"

The two eldest ladies who spoke were born in Baizhu Village, grew up in the village since childhood, and married to the next village after the marriage, and the two of them also grew up watching An Yue and the Zhu family girl who had just gotten off the carriage.

"The appearance is good, but it's a pity~"

"Hey, what's the idea?"

"Hey, this girl's life is not good~"

The two ladies sighed again, and Uncle Li, who was driving the carriage, also replied: "That girl is very polite every time she rides my carriage, she looks good, she looks like a good girl, and those things in her family will pass sooner or later~"

"Yes, she is indeed a good girl, and I hope that those things in her family can pass as soon as possible~"

"Tell me, her father was the only talent in our village, good looking, literate, and able to earn money, and the family bought a lot of fields, and she didn't envy her life, but how could she want to have such a change~"

"yes~This black-hearted~"

"I don't know if her talented father's injury has healed~"

"I heard that you can only use medicine~"

An Yue's father rode the ox cart in the village a few days ago, fell and almost lost half his life. Legs and waist were injured, the day his father was injured, her mother took her brother to look for his father, who wanted to go home and find that the house was stolen again, valuable things were looted, and An Yue and his father's calligraphy and paintings were also ruined, that's all, and her grandmother, who was delirious in her early years, was raised with medicine all the year round, and I don't know if she saw the thief, when An Yue's mother and younger brother came home, her grandmother had rolled from the kang to the ground, and the person almost went.

An Yue didn't know about it at first, but she didn't know about it until she went home, she was angry, and she had already reported to the official, but she didn't see any progress in the case for so long.

I asked the doctor to catch the medicine again, and saved two lives, and the house was looted again, but fortunately, there are still some land deeds that are hidden strangely, and they are not stolen, and they are selling land and selling land, and they ask the doctor to catch the medicine, which saved her grandmother and his father.

But his father's leg was also broken, and he had to be nourished with medicine.

As a result, the family owed a bunch of debts, and had to sell their land and land to pay them off. But the family still needs to eat, fortunately, there are still two acres of land left, but the situation at home is not as good as before.

"Now this family is all supported by her, you say, if a family has no man, it will cost us women's lives!"

"Be quiet, her father is still there~"

"What's still in use? I heard the doctor who showed her father's leg say, that leg, it's not better~"

"How is it possible?A few more days will be fine~"

"I didn't believe it at first, but I heard that it hurt some meridians~"

"What meridians? we don't understand this~"

"To say, fortunately, this girl An read and read well, and came to the academy in the town to teach, and she can still earn money and silver, otherwise I really don't know what to do, her younger brother, only 9 years old, what can she do? There are two more people in the family who use medicine, and her family's fields are sold, and there is nothing left for a long time~"

"Indeed, I pity this girl, just because she looks like that, and her family is not bad, it is okay to marry a rich and noble family in the town, but now that she looks like this, which man is willing to accept it?"

"Isn't it~"

"Those who have good conditions, pay more attention to the right door, for fear that you will lower the threshold of their family, we ordinary people, she can't look down on it, and we can't afford it~"

Lao Li, who was driving the carriage, was a little helpless when he heard this, and replied outside: "It's not that serious, right? I heard that there are many sons in the town who want to ask to marry her, but she herself is unwilling~"

Coachman Li, who was driving the car, paused and said: "This day, you can live it well~"

"Hey, which son wants to ask to marry her?"

"There are a lot of them, just look at her like that, there are many people who want to marry, some of them have good families, but they don't care about her family as much as you say~"

"Hey, those men from good families may not care, but what about the elders in the family?

"It's just ~"

"Hey, by the way, Lao Li, you also have a girl in your family, right? How old is this year?"

Uncle Li, who was driving the carriage, heard them talk about his daughter, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "My girl is thirteen years old this year~"

"Thirteen, this day flies very quickly, and in a few years, I will talk about people~"

"Haha~"

"Hey, don't be patronizing and laughing, do you have a favorite family?

"It's still early~"

"Hey, by the way, it's a pity for your brother-in-law, it's gone~ But fortunately, I won the battle, otherwise those good men would have been gone in vain~"

Lao Li heard them talk about his brother-in-law, and when he thought of his brother-in-law, he was a little helpless and heartbroken, but he didn't answer.

The battle in the northern border city of the northern desert has been fought for many years, and I heard that the general and his subordinates not only defeated the enemy, but also destroyed the two enemy capitals and captured the enemy royal family.

Speaking of these things, he should be happy, but Lao Li is happy, and he regrets that his brother-in-law is gone on the battlefield.

He is just a man from a mountain village, and the battle of the desert border city is too far away from the mountain village in the small town in the south of the Yangtze River, and the occasional passionate thoughts in his heart will soon be suppressed by the trivial things of life.

The battle was too far away from this place, and it didn't affect the life of the town at all, and even the soldiers who went to the battlefield basically volunteered to participate, rather than catching strong men.

In the past, he also wanted to be able to spill blood on the battlefield like his brother-in-law, but later~

He became a groom for a chariot.

The wheels of the carriage continued to roll on the mountain village path, and he still drove the carriage steadily.

An walked faster in the village, getting closer and closer to home, walked for a while, and then walked into the courtyard of his house with his baggage.

It's Qingming soon, just go back to the village to sweep the tomb, and look at my father, grandmother, and younger brother, and by the way, I will give my mother's salary this month and the silver I have saved.

In the small courtyard, her father was sitting on a bamboo chair. Under the osmanthus tree, looking at a worn-out book in his right hand, with a splint tied to his left foot and foot, and a bandage on his left hand, An Yue lowered his eyes and was a little sad.

"Dad, I'm back~"

Father An heard his daughter's voice, looked up and saw that her daughter had walked in, he showed a comfortable smile on his face, and said, "Today's academy Mu Xiu?"

"Yes, Dad, are you getting better?"

Father An shook his head, "It's okay, it will be fine in a few days~"

An Yue nodded, thinking of what he bought, and said, "Dad, I bought osmanthus cake, you can taste it later~"

Father An nodded, and said again: "Let's go and see your grandmother first, your mother is working in the fields with your younger brother, you will go and ask her to come back early and make a good meal~"

An Yue nodded, she entered the hall, put down her things, and went to her grandmother's room, seeing that her grandmother was sleeping peacefully, An Yue looked at it for a while, and then lightly brought the door to the door. He went to the front yard and talked to his father, then went out of the front yard and walked to the edge of the field.

There was a slight wind blowing on the ridges of the mountain village, An Yue walked with steps, looking at this familiar and unfamiliar environment, and took a few deep breaths, which was very refreshing.

After wandering in the underworld for so many years, she was actually a little at a loss at first when she had this opportunity to live again.

She took another deep breath of the air of her hometown, and her heart felt much more relaxed.
