Chapter 15: Living in Jiangnan (Part II)

Taking advantage of the fact that the pear blossoms were not falling, Shang Lu drummed Qingping to collect pear blossoms and make wine with him. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The flowers of Lufu are well taken care of, the pear blossoms are as white as jade, warm as fat, and the wine brewed must be very mellow and can be intoxicating.

Bai Qian likes to drink, just like the prodigal son in all stories, but Bai Qian is not a prodigal son in the traditional sense, the difference is that he does not like to leave any peach blossom debts.

After leaving Xilingye, no one was in charge, and Bai Qian became more addicted to alcohol, but there was no kind of wine that could make him drunk and peaceful like moonlight.

Moonshine is a liquor made from pear blossoms.

He once thought that in this world, only Xilingye would make this kind of wine.

It wasn't until he met Shang Lu later that there was moonlight in his list, and Bai Qian knew that it was not a masterpiece.

How to say it, in fact, when I knew, I was still a little disappointed in my heart.

Time will eventually erase all traces of Xilingye's existence, the empire does not have him, and it is also a song and dance, the generals of the previous dynasty, not only the names and surnames in the history books have been sealed, but even in the nursery rhymes on the streets and alleys, there is no description of him.

The country has forgotten him, the people he has defended with his life, has forgotten him.

I don't know whether to be glad for the prosperity of the Qingping era or sad people's forgetfulness and ruthlessness. The only answer to such a question is to get drunk.

Hakuzen misses that glass of pear blossom wine called moonshine, and misses the time when everything was arranged and nothing had to be considered.

So when Shang Lu said Moonlight's name, his soul, which had always loved freedom, suddenly compromised and chose to keep him. Just like now, in the pear blossom courtyard, the moonlight dissolved, he sat on the roof, smelled the last fragrance of the pear blossoms in the garden, and saw Shang Lu and Qingping shuttling through the pear blossom bushes, and his heart began to have a trace of nostalgia for such a stable and peaceful day.

Since Shang Lu discovered this pear blossom, he began to wait for it to bloom every day, and he opened a batch of moonshine that he brewed, and he could see that Bai Qian's attitude towards him had changed from the name of "moonlight".

He once thought that the cold and taciturn hero Bai Qian was actually a talker, and he was almost defenseless against him. It's just that when he usually meets other people, Bai Qian will still put away the appearance of affinity together and turn back to a cold appearance.

Bai Qian has always turned a deaf ear to Lu Qingping's overtures, and he was so cold that people wanted to hit him.

Qingping can only keep messing with Shang Lu and trying to save the country. But unexpectedly with Shang Lu is very good.

During the day, Shang Lu said to Qingping, "Sister Qingping, have you ever drunk the wine brewed by pear blossoms?"

Qingping: "No, pear blossoms can still make wine?"

Shang Lu: "Mmmm, yes, it's delicious, I've drunk it, but I only drank one drink and got drunk." ”

Qingping's eyes widened and said, "It's so powerful, then I'll see it too." ”

Shang Lu took the opportunity to say: "Well, Sister Qingping, I see that the pear blossoms in your yard are very good, why don't we go pick some wine now." ”

Lu Qingping nodded in agreement, and was about to leave.

Shang Lu stopped her and said that it was best to pick it at night.

So there was a scene of two people picking pear blossoms in the yard that night. In the night when the moon and stars were scarce, the two of them were busy talking and laughing in the forest together, and they were busy until the third watch, and finally gathered the materials for a pot of wine.

Shang Lu asked Qingping: "Sister Qingping, do you say that one pot is too little?" I plan to leave a pot for Brother Bai and a pot for you. ”

Lu Qingping put the bamboo basket full of pear blossoms on the stone bench in the courtyard, raised her hand and pinched the arm that had just been raised, and replied, "Aren't these enough?"

Shang Lu: "These are only enough for one pot." ”

It was deeper and heavier, and the wind was a little cold, although Shang Lu was still reluctant, Qingping refused to continue to toss with him.

At first, she thought it was fun, but after picking pear blossoms all night, Lu Qingping's interest in winemaking was greatly reduced, and now she just wanted to go back early to rest, and couldn't help yawning.

Qingping's tone of voice was tired and a little impatient, and she said, "Who taught you these tossing things? ”

Shang Lu: "I was taught by an older sister who lived together in the Taoist temple before, and I was afraid that they wouldn't pick it, and if the flowers were not suitable, they would have to make it again, which would be even more troublesome." ”

Lu Qingping: "Okay, then let's continue tomorrow, it's too late today." ”

This is the first time that Shang Lu has used light power continuously for such a long time, although the distance is not far and not high enough each time, but it is more than enough to deal with the work of picking flowers.

Shang Lu saw that Qingping was really tired, so he no longer insisted and accompanied her back.

This meal, Bai Qian drank very slowly, he had always drunk the finished product directly, and he didn't know that moonshine was so troublesome to brew. He even sketched in his mind the appearance of Xiling Ye wearing a coarse kudzu cloth shirt and shuttling among the flowers.

Thinking about it, a shallow smile slowly appeared on Bai Qian's face. In the frosty moonlight, his smiling appearance looked extremely lonely.

Why it must be coarse kudzu clothes, this actually doesn't make sense, probably because Shang Lu wore it like this, but when he was in Jinshazhou, Xiling Ye often wore it like that.

He couldn't go and pick flowers in his usual black robe, which was dark navy blue, and that would be even more funny.

The next day, Shang Lu and Lu Qingping continued to collect pear blossoms.

When the materials were ready, Shang Lu buried the two jars of new wine under the pear blossom tree, and said to Qingping: "Sister Qingping, let's bury this wine today, and make an appointment to come and get it together in a few days after ten years." ”

Qingping's life has not yet completed the second decade, so ten years is a bit unpredictable for her.

She frowned and said, "Xiao Lu, ten years, it feels so long." ”

Shang Lu: "Ten years, of course, is not short, how can it be called an agreement if it is short." I hope we can still watch the pear blossoms together here, and I hope Uncle Lu can still smile and watch us play together......"

Shang Lu began to look forward to the scene of the reunion in ten years, and the expression on his face began to become fascinated.

Qingping also echoed: "Well, ten years is not a long time, we must all be still there." Big Brother White will be there too. ”

Shang Lu seemed to think of something, a mischievous smile appeared on his face, and said, "But, Sister Qingping, will you have children?"

When Qingping heard this, she suddenly became shy, and said angrily: "What are you talking about? Then Brother Bai must be willing to marry me." What about you?"

Shang Lu: "I, in the past ten years, I will definitely try my best to help you take a good look at Big Brother Bai and prevent him from marrying another woman." ”

When Qingping heard this, her face was already red, and she raised her hand to hit Shang Lu.

Shang Lu dodged and dodged, and said as he ran: "I'm so righteous, and you still want to beat me, then I'll tell Brother Bai to go." ”

Qingping saw that he really went to Bai Qian's side, and suddenly became anxious and hurriedly chased after him.
