A Qi

Xiaosun cried all night that day, and the next day his eyes were swollen into walnuts, and the teardrops kept falling down, hitting his heart. It is the sky, the master who rewards him with food.

Mei Xiang applied a cold sweat towel to him again and again, the red and swollen eyes disappeared a little, then she looked in the bed, there was a large wet spot on the pillow.

"Master, do you want something to eat?"

With a funny face on her face, Xiao Sun asked, "Where is Grandpa, where are you going today?"

"The master must be in the morning court now, and he hasn't come back yet."

Xiao Sun lowered his head, "Oh, yes." In fact, he wanted to ask if my father was angry with me and went to find the one surnamed Chen or Xu, but it was inconvenient for him to tell the girl in front of a maid. Shaking out all my bitterness, that would be too embarrassing.

Mei Xiang looked at him in a trance, and asked again, "Master, what do you want for breakfast?"

"No appetite." Just after finishing the sentence, he turned to say, "What's going on with those two?"

Mei Xiang guessed what he was thinking, and picked out nice words, regardless of whether it was true or not, just trying to make the master happy, "I heard that I was reprimanded by the master, I should be reflecting on it now."

Only then did Xiaosun turn from grief to joy, and waved her to back off.

At night, Xiao Sun also saw An Rong burning paper in the mansion with his own eyes, the other servants only dared to hide from a distance, but he walked forward, only a few steps away from An Rong, his eyes were still swollen.

Described as sad, without saying a word, An Rong turned around and went back to the house after burning the paper money for Ah Qi, ignoring the little grandson standing beside him.

He hadn't drunk wine for several years, and at night, An Rong drank it again, and it was full of jars, and the door was closed tightly to prevent anyone from coming in. He missed Ah Qi tonight, and he wanted to see him in his dream He, just ask him, how are you doing?Have you ever thought about him?There is also a question in my heart that I have never asked him. Today, he wants to ask him together——Back then, why did you leave so cruelly?

After pouring down a large jar of wine firmly, An Rong's body was covered with wine stains, and his clothes were wet. He drank and drank, and even his eyes were wet. This was the first time An Rong cried after Ah Qi left. The mask of so many years was torn off in an instant, and he felt uncomfortable, so uncomfortable that it ached.

The purpose of using wine to dispel sorrows is to dispel sorrows, but to add regrets throughout your life, like rivers and lakes, galloping mighty momentum, in the end, all kinds of pain, but only in the heart, turned into a short sentence, Ah Qi, You forgive me, okay?

Three years after Ah Qi left, An Rong finally admitted that Ah Qi must have hated him for his ridiculous decision back then.

That's right, it's this kind of remorse, mixed in the thoughts of the undead, An Rong suddenly felt a dull pain between his chest and diaphragm, lifted the wine jar, took another sip, his eyes seemed to disappear, he I just felt a little bit more comfortable.

Xiao Sun lingered at the door for a long time, hesitating whether to go in or not. Today he became a joke, with walnut eyes, he came out of Lanfang Garden to look for An Rong, just to make him feel sorry for him a few times, but he didn't know what he wanted. Well, my father didn't even look at him, he was already depressed, and now it's even worse.

Pushing open the door, Xiao Sun didn't know whether he should step in or not when he saw the scene - An Rong was leaning on the edge of the bed, surrounded by wine jars, and the smell of alcohol filled the whole room.

"Grandpa." Xiao Sun hurried up.

An Rong brushed off Xiao Sun's supporting hand, and struggled to feel for the wine jar on the ground. Seeing this, Xiao Sun climbed onto An Rong's arm again, "Grandpa, don't drink it!" A few tears fell.

"let go!"

"Grandpa, stop drinking!"

An Rong put down the wine jar in his hand, his cheeks were flushed, his eyes were staring blankly, he didn't know where to look, and he murmured, "Ah Qi, Ah Qi..."

Xiao Sun stood aside blankly, seeing that his usually graceful and graceful father had completely lost that look, his eyes felt distressed, but he heard an unfamiliar name from him, and he repeated it several times in his heart —— Ah Qi.

Suddenly, looking at An Rong who was dizzy after drinking, Xiao Sun had a thought.

At the beginning of the year, he was still a small student singing opera in the Liyuan. Once he was called to sing at the home of a minister in the court. He was seen by his father and bought it from the owner of the garden. Those two people came with him.Now, it has been April, but I have never touched him.

Xiao Sun slowly removed the clothes on his body, and then reached out to untie An Rong's clothes, but just as his fingertips touched his collar, An Rong pulled him away.

"Grandpa, let me serve you."

"You are not him, you are not him..." I said this many times, and then my eyes were drunk, and I said to myself, "Where is he going..."

"Who is Ah Qi?" Xiao Sun couldn't resist the confusion in his heart and asked.

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, An Rong reacted, grabbed Xiao Sun, carried him out, and "bang—" the door closed and closed.

After being thrown out by An Rong, Xiao Sun seemed to lose his mind, and left naked and lonely.That night, An Rong locked herself in the room and got drunk all night.

Back at Lanfang Garden, Xiao Sun didn't cry all night like yesterday, he sat on the chair stupidly, without saying a word, Mei Xiang stood aside in panic, after a while, he finally asked, "Mei Xiang, Do you know who Ah Qi is?"

Ah Qi is the "Second Master", Mei Xiang naturally knew it, but she didn't know how to say it.

"This...Master, why did you mention that person?"

"I heard it from my father." Xiao Sun withdrew his disappointed look, and glanced at Mei Xiang, "You know him?"

"Yes, he was there when the servant first entered the mansion, but..."

"But what?" Xiao Sun became interested.

"But then he died...the master also got seriously ill because of it, and stayed in his room for ten days without seeing anyone."

"Dead..." Xiao Sun muttered lightly, then asked again, "What kind of relationship is he with Master?"

Mei Xiang watched Xiao Sun's expression carefully, and said with difficulty, "He sleeps in the same room as the master."

Speaking of this point, no matter how stupid people are, they should understand that sleeping in the same room, when you think about it deeply, means sleeping in the same bed every night.Xiao Sun felt sour in his heart, but he comforted himself that the man was gone.

"Why did he die?"

"When he was in the house, he was always sick. Later, the master sent him to the outskirts of the city to recuperate, and he went there in a few days... The master burned all his things, and the house he lived in was destroyed. It's locked... from now on, no mention of 'Second Master' is allowed in the mansion."

"Well, you go down..."

Mei Xiang stepped back obediently, and the moment she closed the door, she looked inside uneasy, only to see Xiao Sun sitting on the stool motionless, with no emotion on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xiao Sun finally figured out An Rong's anomalies these past few days, presumably the paper money last night was also burnt to that Ah Qi, what kind of person is that, he can be deeply remembered by his father even after death.Xiao Sun felt jealous and envious in his heart.

A few days later, An Rong was back to normal again, but Xiao Sun's status seemed to have plummeted suddenly, An Rong didn't call him over for dinner for two days, but called Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen belonged to the type of person whose brows and eyes were very similar to Ah Qi, and also had inverted triangle eyes. This day An Rong came back for breakfast and let him sit aside.Xiao Chen was very flattered, he was still young, his brows and eyes were always timid, compared to Ah Qi, he was more childish.

An Rong was eating, saw him sitting dryly without moving his chopsticks, so he picked up a piece of fish meat for him, Xiao Chen was very happy now, swallowed the fish meat in one gulp, and took several mouthfuls of rice.

Looking at his stupid look, he looks even more like Ah Qi.No, Ah Qi is even more stupid than him, and even green vegetables are delicious.

"Is it delicious?" It was rare that An Rong took the initiative to provoke the conversation.

"Delicious." Eyes rolled, suddenly thought of that, voice lowered, "My lord, that day, I didn't push Xiao Sun, he fell down by himself."

An Rong stared straight into his eyes, and there was a trace of warmth in her words, "I know."

Xiao Chen felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by him, blushed slightly, lowered his head, and took small bites of the rice in the bowl.

"How old are you?"

The person who was eating suddenly raised his head, swallowed the food in his mouth, and replied respectfully, "Seventeen."

An Rong got up, "After dinner, come to my room."

Xiao Chen quickly put down the bowl and chopsticks and stood up, "My lord, I'm done eating too."

An Rong glanced at the half rice left in his bowl, but said nothing, Xiao Chen followed An Rong to his dorm to the west.

At the door, the two met Xiao Sun, who had been here for a long time, and Xiao Chen hid behind An Rong in fear. He still remembered the incident of Xiao Sun falling into the water, and he was very scared.And Xiao Sun was staring at him right now, as if he was about to eat him up.

In fact, Xiao Chen is the most ignorant of the three. He entered the mansion in a daze. Didn't think about that.But Xiaosun and Xiao Xu are different, they know their identities, they are male favourites, but this male favourite is still a title in name only.

"Grandfather." The voice was miserable, as if complaining about the neglect he had received for many days.

An Rong ignored him, and led Xiao Chen directly into the house. Before going in, Xiao Chen gave Xiao Sun an anxious look.

"My lord, he seems to be still mad at me." After entering the room, Xiao Chen said something.

An Rong smiled, knowing that he was still talking about falling into the water, it really is a child's mind, his thoughts are always straightforward, different from adults.

An Rong replaced Chao Fu, sat in front of the mirror, took off the crown on her head, her black hair hung down like silk, "Come here, comb my hair."

Xiao Chen walked over obediently, picked up a mahogany comb, and combed An Rong's hair slowly and carefully. Suddenly, he saw a white hair, "My lord, you have a white hair on your head."

For a long time, there was no movement in the room. Xiao Chen thought that he had said something wrong, so he didn't dare to continue combing the wooden comb in his hand.

"Pull it out." An Rong ordered, while sighing in his heart, people will grow old, I don't know if I will go to hell, will Ah Qi still recognize him?

When did you let them meet? ...
