A morsel of anger was drowned.He took the topic to a more serious side, once he was by Ao Qi's side, he naturally took the original work back into his hands, as if he had never left.
Taking Aoqi's notebook, Qi'ao carefully read it page by page: "You mean that the extra fabric fee in the account book did not buy fabric?"
"Yes, except for the price problem, I asked the old tailor, some of the fabrics he never used, but the old chef told me that he often has to open a small stove, using all good ingredients, and the cooking is life-threatening medicine And food." Ao Qi put his attention on explaining the problem with Qi Ao, he is not an unreasonable person, anyway, now that Qi Ao is by his side, he has plenty of time.
"Then why did they imprison Grandpa?" Qi Ao didn't explain the reason, but came to this conclusion purely by intuition.
Ao Qi, who was in sync with Qi Ao's thinking, naturally came to this conclusion, but he still had doubts: "If it was for the purpose of seizing the family property, then it would not be necessary to imprison him for decades and not let him die. what is the reason."
Things in the Jianghu are not like those in the court, every bit is recorded by the official historian with pen and ink.If they want to explore the former arena, they can only rely on their own little by little groping. Fortunately, they are together again now, and everything is much easier to do.
Thinking of this, Aoqi couldn't help but feel a little relieved. The two of them didn't dwell on this issue any more. The things they talked about spread to other things. When they were together, they could talk about everything. What came was not a quarrel, but a bickering, the kind that would get more and more boring as you talked.
While talking, Ao Qi's hand brushed his waist, and his fingertips touched the cold jade pendant, he suddenly remembered something: "Qi Ao, sit over there, I have something for you." Ao Qi motioned to Qi Ao for the room Sitting down on the other side.
In addition to the tables and chairs in the teahouse room, there is also a sitting table, covered with special soft cushions, and a small table in the middle, like a bed but not a bed, you can transfer tea and snacks to the small table In the morning, the two were chatting on the couch.In this kind of place for lovers' tryst, sitting down is less erotic than a bed, and more ambiguous than a chair. Maybe the atmosphere is just right for the two of them eating and drinking. I have to say that the shopkeeper is a smart man.
The two sat on the couch, with the small table in between.Qi Ao watched Ao Qi take out a jade pendant from his purse.
At first glance, this jade pendant is not an ordinary item sold in ordinary curio shops. It is a high-quality treasure in terms of materials and craftsmanship.
The jade pendant is of excellent quality, green like emerald feathers and uniform in color, like a pool of green and clear lake water, crystal clear and flawless, its texture is hard and meticulous, delicate and moist, as delicate as fat to the touch, it is warm and moist under the candlelight Soft gloss.
Although the jade pendant is only less than half the size of a palm, it excels in its exquisite carving.A phoenix in a semi-circular shape is lifelike, with a chicken head and a swallow chin, its wings spread lightly, and its feathers. The bottom of the jade pendant is milky white like frost, carved into long tail feathers.
"This was given to me by the old master when I went to his house. He used to be in charge of jewelry for ladies and ladies in the village. He passed countless gold and silver jewelry in his hands, but he only loved jade. He practiced jade carving very well. It’s a pity that no one knows about it. Later, when he got older, he had more leisure time after retiring from the village, and his jade carving skills became better and better. But he never sold it, and kept it at home by himself. "Aoqi proudly showed Qi'ao the treasure he got by accident, "Some time ago he was lucky enough to get a piece of good jade, which was carved into half a dragon and half a phoenix. I happened to visit a few days ago, probably because I liked it I gave it to me. You happen to be holding the Phoenix Bird Lotus Sword, so I will give this to you."
As he said that, Ao Qi also took off the jade pendant from his waist, and put the two jade pendants in his palm, which fit into a complete circle.
The two heads of the dragon and the phoenix touch, and the two tails overlap.
Qi Ao didn't bother to fight with him for dragons and phoenixes, usually Qi Ao didn't wear these things very much, but they were given to him by Ao Qi, so he wanted to put them away carefully.
Seeing that Ao Qi didn't intend to let him wear it himself, Qi Ao got off his seat and sat beside Ao Qi.
Ao Qi lowered his head and focused on helping Qi Ao fasten the jade pendant. When he raised his eyes, he saw Qi Ao's fair neck protruding from his collar.
The clothes Qi Ao wore today were very similar to those of Ao Qi, they were all dark straight embroidered, that's why Dongfang Qing saw Ao Qi as Qi Ao, the only difference was that his collar was black while Qi Ao's collar was dark. The red color against Qi'ao's neck makes her skin look like jade, softer and smoother than the jade pendant in her hand.
Ao Qi suddenly remembered that there was still a fire in his chest.
Qi Ao was still waiting for Ao Qi to help him fasten the jade pendant with his eyes wide open, when suddenly Ao Qi clamped his waist, and when he came to his senses, he wrapped his arms around his waist and forcefully lifted himself into the air, with a blur in front of his eyes , I have already straddled Aoqi's lap.
Before he had time to say anything, he felt Ao Qi biting his neck, Qi Ao trembled in pain, sighed helplessly, and tried to resist twisting: "Don't bite your neck, you will be seen by others."
Ao Qi gave an indistinct "um", pulled off Qi Ao's collar with one hand, grabbed Qi Ao's hand with the other, and pressed down on his lower body.
☆, brother and sister
Hearing a vague sound from upstairs, the shopkeeper who was cutting candles downstairs put down his scissors and silently held his forehead, and then called a waiter: "Go up and see if it's the same thing again, if it is, you can... ..." The shopkeeper made a gesture, and the man nodded knowingly.
The shopkeeper gave orders very skillfully.This kind of thing happened to them a lot. Lonely men and widows, Gan Chai Liehuo's youthful sprouting will inevitably cause some troubles, but after all, this is a teahouse, not a Qinglou. Guys go up and kindly remind me.
The buddies will not go too far, usually pretend to deliver snacks and then push the wrong door, the young people will naturally separate if they are thin-skinned, besides, the people in the general room will not go too far.
The clerk put on a bitter face at the door, listening to the clanging sound inside, he slumped his shoulders resignedly for a long time, then put the skillful line in his mouth, and pretended to accidentally push the door open.
Then, he opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
From his point of view, the two of them were sitting on the couch in the room.
The young man's arm wrapped around the girl's back, and he stuck to the girl tightly.The girl was being held by the young master, and she was sitting in front of the young master with her legs wide open. Because of her posture, she was taller than the young master.Her collar was torn loose, revealing a round shoulder and a piece of fair skin from the back. The young man's head was buried in the socket of the girl's shoulder, and his brows were slightly frowned.
Although the girl's clothes looked like men's clothes, there were not many young ladies who disguised themselves as men and came out to have a tryst with their lovers, which didn't make the guy think too much.The statures of the two are also about the same. I didn't expect this young man to like tall girls.
The two of them didn't speak much, only the high and low, fast and slow panting sounds, sometimes mixed with some deep voices, clearly ordering tea, but the voices of the two were like mellow wine flowing out, low and low. It was intoxicating, but it made the guy who was used to emotional voices blush for the first time.
The sound of the door opening naturally alarmed the two people inside. Qi Ao nervously grabbed the two bodies of ZHU who were rubbing against each other, and the two shot out at the same time with a muffled grunt.
Ao Qi caught Qi Ao's softened body, pulled Qi Ao into his arms, bit the wound on Qi Ao's shoulder that had just healed, and at the same time, where Qi Ao couldn't see, his eyes seemed to kill The frightened guy at the door whose face turned from red to white was nailed to the spot.
Just now, the guy who was stunned by the indistinct Qing丨YU in the room just felt that an ice sword had pierced his head, and the boy's eyes showed an aura and oppression that he had never seen before. His legs were so weak that he hurriedly closed the door: "Guest...Guest officer, you go on, go on." Then he scrambled downstairs, unable to say a word of the usual lines at this moment, afraid of leaving too much In a moment, the son in the room will kill himself.
Qi Ao just vented once, but his strength has not recovered yet, he can't get off Ao Qi's body, he can only hang on him and pant for breath.
Ao Qi helped Qi Ao pull up the half-lost clothes, helped Qi Ao to tidy up his trousers, and tidied up his whole body. His face had long since put away his gloomy expression, and he pointed at the freckles on the two of them jokingly. : "What should I do about this?" Both of them were wearing dark clothes, and the white semen sticking to the clothes was particularly conspicuous.
"You still want to ask me?" Qi Ao took a breath, got off Ao Qi's lap and sat back on the couch, rarely talking to Ao Qi in a bad mood.
Ao Qi knew that he was frightened by the last guy coming in, so he didn't say much, reached out to wipe off his body, accidentally caught a glimpse of the flush on Qi Ao's face that hadn't faded, Ao Qi suddenly He stretched out his hand and smeared a milky white liquid on Qiao's face.
Qi Ao's eyes widened in disbelief, he raised his hand to wipe off the smear on his face in disgust, and kicked Ao Qi's knee, it didn't look like he was angry.
The two had a quarrel for a while, all anger in Aoqi's heart dissipated, and on the contrary, he felt much more comfortable.Now he is carrying a pot of water to ask Qi Ao to wash his hands first, the tea leaves that have been washed all over his hands are fragrant, but it is a pity that he has a good pot of tea.
As for what the guy saw, each of them took it to heart.Originally they were the ones who didn't care what other people thought, not to mention that the guy only saw Ao Qi's front face and Qi Ao's half back, so it wasn't bad to treat them as young people who couldn't restrain themselves for a while.
After resting for a while, Qi'ao went downstairs to pay for the tea, the boy saw his cheeks flushed, he didn't dare to look directly at him, the shopkeeper's expression was also very strange, and in the end he even forgot to ask him where the girl went.
Ao Qi had already turned the window out, waiting for him to go back to the inn together at the street corner.
In the early morning of the next day, Qi Ao sat at the table and skillfully applied the medicine to his shoulders. Ao Qi lay reclined on the bed, propping his head with his hands, while looking at his shoulders that were as white as snowdrifts in the morning light, he casually mentioned: "You said that if I go to Ruyifang, can I get any news?"
"In the eyes of the group of people in Ruyifang, men are only divided into two categories. The owner likes and the owner doesn't like. Which category do you want to be?" Qi Ao straightened his clothes, brushed his loose long hair aside, and turned his head slightly to reveal With half a side face, "I agreed with them yesterday to go on a cruise on Hangzhou Lake. You can arrange it yourself today."
Not long ago, Ao Qi went out to communicate with others, while Qi Ao stayed in the room, reading and sleeping, and after a few days, the roles of the two were reversed.It seems that it is destined in the dark that Ao Qi will do those things related to force, while the interpersonal communication will be pushed to Qi Ao.
Qi Ao tied up her hair, saw that Ao Qi was already meditating on the bed, so she didn't bother him, and went straight to find He Ran Ran and Dong Fang Qing.
According to the plan, after breakfast at the inn, the three of them went directly to Hangzhou Lake to charter a small boat, had fun on the boat for a day, and returned to the inn at night.However, when eating breakfast, Qi Ao found that something was wrong with Dongfang Qing. Qi Ao was a little puzzled by secretly watching him hesitate to speak a few times, but after thinking about it, it was probably what Ao Qi said to her last night. Lamenting that sometimes Aoqi's words are too tactful, at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief at the usual aggressive Dongfang Qing's slowed down.
When Mu Xiuqi was still traveling with them, the four of them would have a lot of fun eating together.
He is often the youngest, naive and fond of Qi Ao, and Ran Ran sometimes speaks out some intimate words directly, Dongfang Qing glares at her almond-eyed, sharp-tongued sarcasm, and Ran Ran is too young to be ashamed, and Ran Ran is not ashamed Tears filled with anger, at this moment Mu Xiuqi would stand up and speak a few words to make both of them laugh, and persuade them to be harmonious.
But Qi Ao really doesn't like this kind of drama. Although most of the four of them are surrounded by him, he always has a feeling of being isolated from them. He would rather go upstairs to read a collection of poems or read a few words. Book.
So after Mu Xiuqi left, it became the world with Ran Ran and Dongfang Qing at the dinner table, and sometimes Qi Ao was afraid that the trouble would be too big and others would watch it as a show before trying to persuade him.Fortunately, Qi'ao is gifted in communication. He speaks a sentence in a tepid manner, not only does not show his temper, but also makes both of them feel that the words are said for himself.
But today was very abnormal. After breakfast, all three of them were quiet. Qi Ao didn't speak. He and Ran Ran were probably frightened by the strange atmosphere. They carefully ate the buns, and raised their big eyes from the bowl to the left. Looking to the right, Dongfang Qing looked more like a thorn had been pulled out of her body, sitting on a chair and drinking porridge.
Waiting for the two girls to finish eating, but still no one spoke, Qi Ao wiped his mouth and then asked gently and politely: "Is everything finished? Then shall we go for a cruise on Hangzhou Lake now or take a rest before going? "The tone was very natural, as if he was completely unaware of the embarrassing atmosphere.
He and Ran Ran wanted to talk at first, but when they opened their mouths, they found that Dongfang Qing was not interested, so they closed their mouths sullenly, looking at Qi Ao and Dongfang Qing to the right, apparently waiting for the two of them to make up their minds.
"Gu... Mr. Gu," Dongfang Qing, who has always been in a hurry, showed a rare expression of hesitation. She bit her lower lip and looked at Qi Ao. After a long time, she took a deep breath before choking out a sentence, "I I won't go to Hanghu with you today, and in the future... I have something to do at home, so I have to say goodbye first."
After saying these words, Dongfang Qing seemed to let go of something suddenly, the resentful expression on her face that didn't suit her was wiped away, and was replaced by a big smile, she patted Qi'ao's shoulder energetically : "Mr. Gu, thank you for your care these days. If you don't dislike it, I would like to marry Mr. Gu to Jinlan. From now on, you will be my righteous brother Dongfang Qing, and your business is mine. If there is any difficulty You can come to Dongfang Mansion to find me." At this point, Dongfang Qing clasped her fists together, "Let's say goodbye today, and see you in the rivers and lakes by fate."
The shyness and anxiety along the way disappeared at this moment, and Qi Ao seemed to see the thorny but bright red rose when they met for the first time.Although this is the first man she has liked in 16 years, she said it out, but since Qi Ao doesn't like herself, there is no need for her to put down her figure and pursue hard.
Qi Ao is not the only good man in the world, but Qi Ao is the only one who is so good. Since she has no chance to become a lover, she doesn't mind taking a step back, and there is no need to break the relationship that has been managed so hard.
Dongfang Qing's things that were thrown away along the way since meeting Qi'ao, now all returned to her, and turned into an even more dazzling brilliance. She stood in the hall, dressed in red, with a confident smile on her lips , attracting everyone's attention.
But among all these people, He Ranran, whose complexion suddenly changed, and Qi Ao, who was breathing in softly and holding back the pain, were not counted. Just now, Dongfang Qing's impartial palm just hit the place where he was bitten yesterday, and the force was a bit strong. Almost made Qi Ao cry out.
"Look at what to look at, and look again to dig out your eyes." Qi Ao heard Dongfang Qing's very familiar lines, and his shoulders didn't hurt so much. He looked at Dongfang Qing and shook his head with a gentle smile. With a doting look, he politely replied: "Then you should be careful all the way, we will definitely visit you when we are free."
Although she was mentally prepared, Dongfang Qing was still shocked by Qi Ao's smile, raised her hand to cover the blush on her face, and turned her head to divert her attention by saying something to He Ranran who had been silent all this time: "He Ranran, although You always talk without going through your brain, but for the sake of my brother, I will recognize you as a younger sister, and remember to come to me if you need anything in the future."
Having said so far, this should have been a happy ending. Dongfang Qing talked to Ran Ran with a smile for the first time. She waited in a good mood and nodded to Ran Ran, then waved her hand and turned to leave. Tian Qi'ao may pass by the Dongfang Mansion, but he can still invite him to stay in the Dongfang Mansion for a while.
"You are the most annoying!" He Ranran, who huddled himself into a ball as much as possible, and was neglected to the point of air, suddenly yelled, "You go, you go, everything has always been done according to your rules, now It was agreed to go to the lake, but if you don’t want to go, you don’t go, and if you say go home, you go home. Is there anyone else in your eyes!”
Pushing aside Qi Ao who was scared by Dongfang Qing and didn't know why, he and Ran Ran ran back to the room with red eyes.
"Who is she?" Dongfang Qing looked at Qi'ao in a state of bewilderment.
Qi Ao put on a comforting smile: "Probably because you suddenly said that you want to leave and she is a little bit reluctant."
"Is that so?" Dongfang Qing glanced strangely at the direction in which Ran Ran ran away, thought about it but couldn't figure out why, and spread her hands indifferently, "Then I'm leaving, you can help comfort Ran Ran Bar."
"Okay." Qi Ao replied with a polite smile.
☆, the past
After sending Dongfang Qing away, Qi Ao didn't intend to visit He Ranran, because when she was vulnerable and needed comfort, he shouldn't be there, so as not to have any incorrect emotional dependence on him.
The setting sun sprinkled orange red on the ground, and the clouds in the distance seemed to be burning red, a bright red that had never been seen before spread from the sky, the whole sky seemed to be overturned and the sky was on fire, sometimes some dazzling The golden color is the afterglow of the setting sun, but it is more dazzling against the gloomy twilight than at noon, it is the last beauty of the sun that is exhausting its life.
The wind in the evening blew the book in Qi'ao's hands with a trace of coolness. After turning over the last page this time, Qi'ao closed the book and looked around, and said, "It's evening in the blink of an eye, no wonder It feels a bit dim.”
Aoqi withdrew his momentum, closed his eyes and felt the true energy in his body slowly flowing along the meridians like a quiet river, then let out a breath slowly, stood up and closed the window, then looked at Qi'ao: "Don't go to comfort me And Ran Ran, aren't you afraid that she will run away?" There was a hint of ridicule in her speech.
Qi Ao didn't say anything to Ao Qi, he just counted the time by himself, then he nodded, put down the book in his hand and walked towards the door.
Leaning against the window and watching Qi Ao float towards the door as if his feet were not touching the ground, Ao Qi silently counted down "five four three two one" in his heart, and then saw Qi Ao's hand just covering the door latch and suddenly Turning around, squinting at himself for a while, he said, "You can go too."
The two looked at each other silently for a while, Ao Qi couldn't hold back at first and let out a "sneer", walked over and grabbed Qi Ao's shoulders and walked out together: "Have you thought about how to introduce me?"
"The fourth son of the Dugu family in Qianyue Mountain Villa." Qi'ao seemed not to take this question seriously at all, "I ran into Gu Qi'ao who looked like me on the way out and wanted to get acquainted with him."
Qi Ao, who wanted to go directly to the room with Ran Ran, was dragged downstairs by Ao Qi, and pressed against the table to watch Ao Qi order.The sky was getting dark, and Xiao Er hadn't lit a candle yet. Under the dim light, the appearance of the two of them was a bit blurry. Coupled with their completely different temperaments, no one would really think of them as one person at first glance.
When Xiao Er brought candles and food, Ao Qi happened to lower his head and fiddle with the jade pendant on Qi Ao's waist.Xiao Er saw that the people around Mr. Gu were acting intimately with him, and their vague features were very similar to Qi Ao, so he smiled and said casually: "Mr. Gu, is this your elder brother?"
Qi Ao also agreed very smoothly: "Exactly." Then he changed the subject naturally and ordered, "Prepare another meal for me, and I will bring it to you and the girl later."
Qi Ao and the others also lived in this inn for a few days, and they are outstanding in appearance, so it's hard not to attract attention. The behavior of a few people on weekdays is noticed by the little girls, and there is a lot of gossip in private. Hearing this Instructed Xiao Er to give an ambiguous "oh", and hurriedly agreed: "I'll help you get ready."
"The inexplicable master and servant, the fateful person I met by chance, the brother who looks alike, what identity are you going to give me next time?" Ao Qi checked whether the jade pendant was hung firmly, and then sat back in his seat, not forgetting Finally, he mocked Qi Ao.
Qi Ao knew that Ao Qi was a little aggrieved by the existence of two people who had to be one in the dark and the other in the dark, but he didn't really care who was in the dark and who was in the dark, so he couldn't help being a little funny: "Next time, say that I am your substitute." I don't feel much about these things, but Ao Qi cares more than myself.
Sure enough, the corners of Aoqi's mouth twitched when he heard Qi'ao's words, and he looked a little dark under the dim candlelight: "One day I will let you stand by my side in an upright manner, it's not like there can only be one person now. I Let everyone recognize our identities." For Ao Qi, Qi Ao is also himself, there is no reason why one is doing well and the other is not, there is always someone secretly making him feel aggrieved, He was born to be the center of attention, and so was Qi Ao, if Qi Ao found it troublesome, he would help Qi Ao achieve it.
What's more, once a fish that swims flexibly in the dark can be found in the light, it will be easier to catch it firmly. If an exclusive label can be printed, even the public can help monitor its tracks.
Qi Ao naturally understood Ao Qi's strange, almost stubborn "narcissism", and didn't say much about his ambiguous words. He gave him a chopstick and knocked on the side of Ao Qi's bowl: Eat, don't get hungry before standing up."
Qi Ao's smile is much prettier than Ao Qi's mouth twitching, like a piece of jade slowly flowing with light, not dazzling but attractive, as soon as you see it at first glance, you will drown and never come out again.Ao Qi stared at Qi Ao's face for a few seconds, finally snorted without saying anything, and lowered his head to eat.
He Ranran was woken up by the knock on the door, only to realize that it was already dark outside the window, she started crying in the morning, cried drowsily, and finally fell asleep from crying, it has been more than half a day.
She was still a little depressed in her heart, and she had been working hard to show that she wanted Dongfang Qing to notice her.In fact, no one would know if she didn't tell her. Compared to Gu Qi'ao, she was more concerned about Dongfang Qing who was always making noise.It was a very strange feeling. Dongfang Qing was not a few years older than her, but she was completely different from her.Dongfang Qing is just like the red dress on her body, dazzling and dazzling, she dares to say what she likes and also dares to say what she doesn't like.He Ranran grew up in Ruyifang since he was a child, and he was surrounded by women who were educated to be gentle and virtuous. It was the first time he saw Dongfang Qing with such vitality, so He Ranran wanted to get acquainted with her, make friends with her, and talk to her Talk, but the only topic between them is Mr. Gu.He Ranran is like a timid bird, hiding in the nest but not reconciled, stretching his head out but afraid of falling, but Dongfang Qing's words today cut off He Ranran's way to approach her slowly up.
For the first time in his life, the person he cared about, the friend who wanted to be together, just disappeared, and when he left, he mentioned himself because of Mr. Gu, and it was very frustrating to think of this and Ran Ran.That's right, Dongfang Qing was surrounded by a group of people at a glance, and Dongfang Qing would definitely not pay attention to people like herself.
"Miss He, are you still awake?" As the night darkened, the warm yellow candlelight outside the door became more obvious, and Qi Ao's rhythmic knock on the door and gentle voice sounded again, and He Ranran found himself After hanging the other party at the door for a while, he hurried over to open the door.
"Mr. Gu." He Ranran muttered, lowering his head and not daring to look at him, he was really embarrassed to let him hang out for so long just now.
Mr. Gu's voice sounded in front of him: "Seeing that you haven't been out all day, I think you haven't eaten yet, so I brought some for you." The voice was as gentle and gentle as Mr. Gu's, neither far nor near , I can't tell what's bad, but it's not just good for you.
At first, I thought Mr. Gu was the only one coming, but when he entered the door, it was obviously the footsteps of two people, and Ran Ran thought it was Qi Ao asking the waiter to bring the food, and after waiting for a while, he found that the other person had no intention of leaving, so he raised his head look over.
"You...you..." It wasn't the waiter who was holding the food, but Qiao himself. Jean and Ranran opened their mouths wide in shock, and it took a long time to spit out the word "you". It was the one with Qiao behind Qiao face man.
Qi Ao didn't seem to notice her rude behavior, she put the food on the table and said to He Ranran: "Miss He, come and eat something to fill your stomach first, and I'll tell you what's going on while eating."
The meals that Qi Ao prepared for He Ranran were light and delicious, very suitable for people who hadn't eaten for most of the day, and the taste was also liked by He Ranran.He Ranran was very moved in her heart, although she knew that Mr. Gu didn't like her, but he was so kind to everyone, he was really a caring and gentle person that made people's heart flutter.
Seeing that He Ranran started drinking soup, Ao Qi and Qi Ao sat down, and then Qi Ao explained the matter to He Ran Ran.
In Qi Ao's narration, he and Ao Qi met in the teahouse on the first night, when he suddenly met someone who looked exactly like him, he couldn't help sighing how wonderful the world is, and out of curiosity, he went up to talk to him, one was from an ordinary family Scholar, the other is the fourth son of Qianyue Mountain Villa, and after a few chats, he hit it off very well. Later, he heard that Aoqi came to this inn, which was related to Ruyifang. stay down.I originally planned to ask Aoqi to ask some questions along the way during the introduction tonight, but seeing that He Ranran was in such a bad mood, I decided to give up.
He Ranran heard Qi Ao say this, and hastily put down his chopsticks: "It's okay, you can just ask me, Mr. Dugu, I'm fine." Mr. Gu took care of her too much, worried that she would be hungry and even brought her a special meal , even if she was still worried about her mood at this time, she was thinking about how to repay Mr. Gu, but when she came across this opportunity, she naturally took it.
Fortunately, she is in a much better mood now, and it's not a big deal to be a little bored. If Mr. Gu came a few hours earlier, I'm afraid that she will not be able to control herself and cry on him.
Thinking of this and Ran Ran quietly looked at Qi'ao's shoulder, imagined the scene secretly in her heart, pursed her lips and smiled, suddenly felt two gloomy eyes on her body, which made her tremble, and made the little girl in her heart tremble. My mind was also shaken.
I really cried for too long to feel that Mr. Dugu and Mr. Gu resemble each other.
Unconsciously flinching, He Ranran asked Ao Qi timidly: "If there is anything you want to know, my lord, I will know everything without saying it."
Lonely Aoqi was not polite at all, and asked her straight to the point about the three generations of Ruyifang. When Aoqi couldn't explain clearly to Ran Ran, he asked her again and again.
In the end, Qi Ao couldn't stand it any longer, and interjected: "It's getting late today, you and the girl should rest first, I really trouble you today." At the same time, he gave Ao Qi a wink.Ao Qi nodded clearly, and stood up together with Qi Ao.
He Ranran also stood up, her face was pale and shaking, she was sweating coldly when she saw Ao Qi, and it became a laborious thing to make a sound with a lump in her throat: "It's okay, I may still miss it." I’ve figured it out, and I’ll talk to you guys tomorrow when I think about it.”
After sending the two of them to the door, Qi Ao turned around and said to He Ranran with concern: "Your complexion is not good, you should go to bed early, and I will bring the food for you."
He Ranran wanted to say a few more words to Mr. Gu, but the aura of Dugu Aoqi next to Mr. Gu was terrifying, so in the end he just said thank you softly and closed the door.
There was no one in the lobby, and the candles in several guest rooms had already been extinguished. A clerk squinted his eyes in a daze on the counter, and the flame of the oil lamp beside him flickered occasionally.
"Excuse me." The voice was obviously not particularly loud, and it could even be called gentle, but it woke up the guy, "You have to clean up this trouble.
The guy who was awakened in anger saw that it was Mr. Gu, and the dissatisfaction on his face was wiped away and turned into a smile, and he immediately responded in a good voice: "No trouble, no trouble, it's us who sent Mr. Gu down." That's wrong. How about this, what Mr. Gu wants to eat tomorrow morning, we will prepare it for you in advance."
Qi Ao thought for a while, and just about to speak, another voice came from the stairs behind: "I have heard that Yunze's four-flavored cake is a must in Yunze, and two bowls of porridge will be delivered to the room tomorrow morning."
Only then did the man realize that there was a person standing on the stairs leading to the second floor. Because the light was too dark, he hadn't seen him all the time. He hurriedly smiled professionally in the direction of Aoqi in the darkness: "Mr. Gu, I'm sorry I didn't see you Hearing Aoqi's "hmm", the buddy gave Qi'ao a kind suggestion, "It's so late, Mr. Gu can't find a place to stay when he goes out, why don't we just stay in the small shop for a night and then open another one?" room?"
Qi Ao shook his head: "No need, my brother and I can sleep in one room." After saying that, Qi Ao didn't want an oil lamp to illuminate the road and turned back into the darkness. The clerk opened his eyes wide and couldn't see beyond the range illuminated by the light. In such a situation, only a few low voices of the two could be heard.
"Be careful, pull me."
"It's not that dark, but it's still visible."
……
"Let me ask tomorrow. You scared people enough today."
"But the effect is also obvious, isn't it?"
"Yes……"
The author has something to say:

Ao Qi held the still warm Mian Yunnuo in his hand, propped up an oiled paper umbrella, lowered the eaves of the umbrella, intentionally or unintentionally covering his eyebrows, hurried across the stone bridge, passed an alley, crossed again Enter the trail and turn left and right along the stone road, surrounded by old wood soaked in the smell of moisture, which gives a unique feeling of a small southern town.Pushing open a small shop in the depths of the alley, the dust and musty smell of the rainy season came over us. The first floor, which was originally backlit and closed the doors and windows, was dark and shabby. The creaking of wooden planks did not wake him up.
In the only bright room, Qi Ao was slowly talking to Ran Ran about some fairy tales written in books, such as the crown prince abdicating the throne and the second prince becoming a happy fairy, the ancient gods always bring a fairy with them. There is a well-behaved little servant who can hear and Ran Ran has bright eyes.Familiar footsteps approached from far away, Qi Ao was still talking about the story, but he took the cup beside him and poured out the cold tea in it, and took the jug beside him, the clear and transparent wine came from Poured out of the jug, with a faint sweetness.As soon as the wine was filled, the emerald green dish containing the soft and white pastry was placed beside her hand, Qi Ao slightly turned sideways and stretched out her hand to wipe away the moisture from Ao Qi's body: "You came back just in time, Mr. Ru will be here soon."
When Ran Ran saw Ao Qi, he trembled unconsciously, and moved back slightly to get away from Qi Ao.Ao Qi glanced at her unintentionally, sat down beside Qi Ao, and listened to Qi Ao's soft-spoken explanation: "Perhaps the local people may not know that Chun Shanlu, who has been missed by the Emperor for so many years, actually Buried in the courtyard of this small shop, it’s a pity that the wine maker has passed away long ago, and this wine is one of the few.” After that, he pointed to Mian Yunnuo, “Chunshanlu paired with this Mianyunnuo is a must in the local area. It is said that the wine maker of Chunshanlu and the pastry chef of Mianyunnuo were the same people who lived together, ate and lived together, but then the two suddenly fell out for some reason, one east of the city and the other west of the city. Contact each other."
After listening to Qi Ao's introduction, Ao Qi took the wine that Qi Ao poured for him, took a sip of the warm Mianyun Nuo according to Qi Ao's method, and then drank the Chunshanlu in the cup. , it really seems that spring has grown between the lips and teeth, and it is He Qiao's usual favorite taste.
Just as he was planning to take two more altars back home for Qi Ao to taste slowly, he heard two "pops", and a man walked in from the door. The temperament precipitated by time is excellent, and people can notice him in the crowd at a glance.The man was holding a jade bone ink side fan, with faint lines of smile on the corners of his eyes, walked into the room and slightly bowed his hands to everyone: "
Taking Aoqi's notebook, Qi'ao carefully read it page by page: "You mean that the extra fabric fee in the account book did not buy fabric?"
"Yes, except for the price problem, I asked the old tailor, some of the fabrics he never used, but the old chef told me that he often has to open a small stove, using all good ingredients, and the cooking is life-threatening medicine And food." Ao Qi put his attention on explaining the problem with Qi Ao, he is not an unreasonable person, anyway, now that Qi Ao is by his side, he has plenty of time.
"Then why did they imprison Grandpa?" Qi Ao didn't explain the reason, but came to this conclusion purely by intuition.
Ao Qi, who was in sync with Qi Ao's thinking, naturally came to this conclusion, but he still had doubts: "If it was for the purpose of seizing the family property, then it would not be necessary to imprison him for decades and not let him die. what is the reason."
Things in the Jianghu are not like those in the court, every bit is recorded by the official historian with pen and ink.If they want to explore the former arena, they can only rely on their own little by little groping. Fortunately, they are together again now, and everything is much easier to do.
Thinking of this, Aoqi couldn't help but feel a little relieved. The two of them didn't dwell on this issue any more. The things they talked about spread to other things. When they were together, they could talk about everything. What came was not a quarrel, but a bickering, the kind that would get more and more boring as you talked.
While talking, Ao Qi's hand brushed his waist, and his fingertips touched the cold jade pendant, he suddenly remembered something: "Qi Ao, sit over there, I have something for you." Ao Qi motioned to Qi Ao for the room Sitting down on the other side.
In addition to the tables and chairs in the teahouse room, there is also a sitting table, covered with special soft cushions, and a small table in the middle, like a bed but not a bed, you can transfer tea and snacks to the small table In the morning, the two were chatting on the couch.In this kind of place for lovers' tryst, sitting down is less erotic than a bed, and more ambiguous than a chair. Maybe the atmosphere is just right for the two of them eating and drinking. I have to say that the shopkeeper is a smart man.
The two sat on the couch, with the small table in between.Qi Ao watched Ao Qi take out a jade pendant from his purse.
At first glance, this jade pendant is not an ordinary item sold in ordinary curio shops. It is a high-quality treasure in terms of materials and craftsmanship.
The jade pendant is of excellent quality, green like emerald feathers and uniform in color, like a pool of green and clear lake water, crystal clear and flawless, its texture is hard and meticulous, delicate and moist, as delicate as fat to the touch, it is warm and moist under the candlelight Soft gloss.
Although the jade pendant is only less than half the size of a palm, it excels in its exquisite carving.A phoenix in a semi-circular shape is lifelike, with a chicken head and a swallow chin, its wings spread lightly, and its feathers. The bottom of the jade pendant is milky white like frost, carved into long tail feathers.
"This was given to me by the old master when I went to his house. He used to be in charge of jewelry for ladies and ladies in the village. He passed countless gold and silver jewelry in his hands, but he only loved jade. He practiced jade carving very well. It’s a pity that no one knows about it. Later, when he got older, he had more leisure time after retiring from the village, and his jade carving skills became better and better. But he never sold it, and kept it at home by himself. "Aoqi proudly showed Qi'ao the treasure he got by accident, "Some time ago he was lucky enough to get a piece of good jade, which was carved into half a dragon and half a phoenix. I happened to visit a few days ago, probably because I liked it I gave it to me. You happen to be holding the Phoenix Bird Lotus Sword, so I will give this to you."
As he said that, Ao Qi also took off the jade pendant from his waist, and put the two jade pendants in his palm, which fit into a complete circle.
The two heads of the dragon and the phoenix touch, and the two tails overlap.
Qi Ao didn't bother to fight with him for dragons and phoenixes, usually Qi Ao didn't wear these things very much, but they were given to him by Ao Qi, so he wanted to put them away carefully.
Seeing that Ao Qi didn't intend to let him wear it himself, Qi Ao got off his seat and sat beside Ao Qi.
Ao Qi lowered his head and focused on helping Qi Ao fasten the jade pendant. When he raised his eyes, he saw Qi Ao's fair neck protruding from his collar.
The clothes Qi Ao wore today were very similar to those of Ao Qi, they were all dark straight embroidered, that's why Dongfang Qing saw Ao Qi as Qi Ao, the only difference was that his collar was black while Qi Ao's collar was dark. The red color against Qi'ao's neck makes her skin look like jade, softer and smoother than the jade pendant in her hand.
Ao Qi suddenly remembered that there was still a fire in his chest.
Qi Ao was still waiting for Ao Qi to help him fasten the jade pendant with his eyes wide open, when suddenly Ao Qi clamped his waist, and when he came to his senses, he wrapped his arms around his waist and forcefully lifted himself into the air, with a blur in front of his eyes , I have already straddled Aoqi's lap.
Before he had time to say anything, he felt Ao Qi biting his neck, Qi Ao trembled in pain, sighed helplessly, and tried to resist twisting: "Don't bite your neck, you will be seen by others."
Ao Qi gave an indistinct "um", pulled off Qi Ao's collar with one hand, grabbed Qi Ao's hand with the other, and pressed down on his lower body.
☆, brother and sister
Hearing a vague sound from upstairs, the shopkeeper who was cutting candles downstairs put down his scissors and silently held his forehead, and then called a waiter: "Go up and see if it's the same thing again, if it is, you can... ..." The shopkeeper made a gesture, and the man nodded knowingly.
The shopkeeper gave orders very skillfully.This kind of thing happened to them a lot. Lonely men and widows, Gan Chai Liehuo's youthful sprouting will inevitably cause some troubles, but after all, this is a teahouse, not a Qinglou. Guys go up and kindly remind me.
The buddies will not go too far, usually pretend to deliver snacks and then push the wrong door, the young people will naturally separate if they are thin-skinned, besides, the people in the general room will not go too far.
The clerk put on a bitter face at the door, listening to the clanging sound inside, he slumped his shoulders resignedly for a long time, then put the skillful line in his mouth, and pretended to accidentally push the door open.
Then, he opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
From his point of view, the two of them were sitting on the couch in the room.
The young man's arm wrapped around the girl's back, and he stuck to the girl tightly.The girl was being held by the young master, and she was sitting in front of the young master with her legs wide open. Because of her posture, she was taller than the young master.Her collar was torn loose, revealing a round shoulder and a piece of fair skin from the back. The young man's head was buried in the socket of the girl's shoulder, and his brows were slightly frowned.
Although the girl's clothes looked like men's clothes, there were not many young ladies who disguised themselves as men and came out to have a tryst with their lovers, which didn't make the guy think too much.The statures of the two are also about the same. I didn't expect this young man to like tall girls.
The two of them didn't speak much, only the high and low, fast and slow panting sounds, sometimes mixed with some deep voices, clearly ordering tea, but the voices of the two were like mellow wine flowing out, low and low. It was intoxicating, but it made the guy who was used to emotional voices blush for the first time.
The sound of the door opening naturally alarmed the two people inside. Qi Ao nervously grabbed the two bodies of ZHU who were rubbing against each other, and the two shot out at the same time with a muffled grunt.
Ao Qi caught Qi Ao's softened body, pulled Qi Ao into his arms, bit the wound on Qi Ao's shoulder that had just healed, and at the same time, where Qi Ao couldn't see, his eyes seemed to kill The frightened guy at the door whose face turned from red to white was nailed to the spot.
Just now, the guy who was stunned by the indistinct Qing丨YU in the room just felt that an ice sword had pierced his head, and the boy's eyes showed an aura and oppression that he had never seen before. His legs were so weak that he hurriedly closed the door: "Guest...Guest officer, you go on, go on." Then he scrambled downstairs, unable to say a word of the usual lines at this moment, afraid of leaving too much In a moment, the son in the room will kill himself.
Qi Ao just vented once, but his strength has not recovered yet, he can't get off Ao Qi's body, he can only hang on him and pant for breath.
Ao Qi helped Qi Ao pull up the half-lost clothes, helped Qi Ao to tidy up his trousers, and tidied up his whole body. His face had long since put away his gloomy expression, and he pointed at the freckles on the two of them jokingly. : "What should I do about this?" Both of them were wearing dark clothes, and the white semen sticking to the clothes was particularly conspicuous.
"You still want to ask me?" Qi Ao took a breath, got off Ao Qi's lap and sat back on the couch, rarely talking to Ao Qi in a bad mood.
Ao Qi knew that he was frightened by the last guy coming in, so he didn't say much, reached out to wipe off his body, accidentally caught a glimpse of the flush on Qi Ao's face that hadn't faded, Ao Qi suddenly He stretched out his hand and smeared a milky white liquid on Qiao's face.
Qi Ao's eyes widened in disbelief, he raised his hand to wipe off the smear on his face in disgust, and kicked Ao Qi's knee, it didn't look like he was angry.
The two had a quarrel for a while, all anger in Aoqi's heart dissipated, and on the contrary, he felt much more comfortable.Now he is carrying a pot of water to ask Qi Ao to wash his hands first, the tea leaves that have been washed all over his hands are fragrant, but it is a pity that he has a good pot of tea.
As for what the guy saw, each of them took it to heart.Originally they were the ones who didn't care what other people thought, not to mention that the guy only saw Ao Qi's front face and Qi Ao's half back, so it wasn't bad to treat them as young people who couldn't restrain themselves for a while.
After resting for a while, Qi'ao went downstairs to pay for the tea, the boy saw his cheeks flushed, he didn't dare to look directly at him, the shopkeeper's expression was also very strange, and in the end he even forgot to ask him where the girl went.
Ao Qi had already turned the window out, waiting for him to go back to the inn together at the street corner.
In the early morning of the next day, Qi Ao sat at the table and skillfully applied the medicine to his shoulders. Ao Qi lay reclined on the bed, propping his head with his hands, while looking at his shoulders that were as white as snowdrifts in the morning light, he casually mentioned: "You said that if I go to Ruyifang, can I get any news?"
"In the eyes of the group of people in Ruyifang, men are only divided into two categories. The owner likes and the owner doesn't like. Which category do you want to be?" Qi Ao straightened his clothes, brushed his loose long hair aside, and turned his head slightly to reveal With half a side face, "I agreed with them yesterday to go on a cruise on Hangzhou Lake. You can arrange it yourself today."
Not long ago, Ao Qi went out to communicate with others, while Qi Ao stayed in the room, reading and sleeping, and after a few days, the roles of the two were reversed.It seems that it is destined in the dark that Ao Qi will do those things related to force, while the interpersonal communication will be pushed to Qi Ao.
Qi Ao tied up her hair, saw that Ao Qi was already meditating on the bed, so she didn't bother him, and went straight to find He Ran Ran and Dong Fang Qing.
According to the plan, after breakfast at the inn, the three of them went directly to Hangzhou Lake to charter a small boat, had fun on the boat for a day, and returned to the inn at night.However, when eating breakfast, Qi Ao found that something was wrong with Dongfang Qing. Qi Ao was a little puzzled by secretly watching him hesitate to speak a few times, but after thinking about it, it was probably what Ao Qi said to her last night. Lamenting that sometimes Aoqi's words are too tactful, at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief at the usual aggressive Dongfang Qing's slowed down.
When Mu Xiuqi was still traveling with them, the four of them would have a lot of fun eating together.
He is often the youngest, naive and fond of Qi Ao, and Ran Ran sometimes speaks out some intimate words directly, Dongfang Qing glares at her almond-eyed, sharp-tongued sarcasm, and Ran Ran is too young to be ashamed, and Ran Ran is not ashamed Tears filled with anger, at this moment Mu Xiuqi would stand up and speak a few words to make both of them laugh, and persuade them to be harmonious.
But Qi Ao really doesn't like this kind of drama. Although most of the four of them are surrounded by him, he always has a feeling of being isolated from them. He would rather go upstairs to read a collection of poems or read a few words. Book.
So after Mu Xiuqi left, it became the world with Ran Ran and Dongfang Qing at the dinner table, and sometimes Qi Ao was afraid that the trouble would be too big and others would watch it as a show before trying to persuade him.Fortunately, Qi'ao is gifted in communication. He speaks a sentence in a tepid manner, not only does not show his temper, but also makes both of them feel that the words are said for himself.
But today was very abnormal. After breakfast, all three of them were quiet. Qi Ao didn't speak. He and Ran Ran were probably frightened by the strange atmosphere. They carefully ate the buns, and raised their big eyes from the bowl to the left. Looking to the right, Dongfang Qing looked more like a thorn had been pulled out of her body, sitting on a chair and drinking porridge.
Waiting for the two girls to finish eating, but still no one spoke, Qi Ao wiped his mouth and then asked gently and politely: "Is everything finished? Then shall we go for a cruise on Hangzhou Lake now or take a rest before going? "The tone was very natural, as if he was completely unaware of the embarrassing atmosphere.
He and Ran Ran wanted to talk at first, but when they opened their mouths, they found that Dongfang Qing was not interested, so they closed their mouths sullenly, looking at Qi Ao and Dongfang Qing to the right, apparently waiting for the two of them to make up their minds.
"Gu... Mr. Gu," Dongfang Qing, who has always been in a hurry, showed a rare expression of hesitation. She bit her lower lip and looked at Qi Ao. After a long time, she took a deep breath before choking out a sentence, "I I won't go to Hanghu with you today, and in the future... I have something to do at home, so I have to say goodbye first."
After saying these words, Dongfang Qing seemed to let go of something suddenly, the resentful expression on her face that didn't suit her was wiped away, and was replaced by a big smile, she patted Qi'ao's shoulder energetically : "Mr. Gu, thank you for your care these days. If you don't dislike it, I would like to marry Mr. Gu to Jinlan. From now on, you will be my righteous brother Dongfang Qing, and your business is mine. If there is any difficulty You can come to Dongfang Mansion to find me." At this point, Dongfang Qing clasped her fists together, "Let's say goodbye today, and see you in the rivers and lakes by fate."
The shyness and anxiety along the way disappeared at this moment, and Qi Ao seemed to see the thorny but bright red rose when they met for the first time.Although this is the first man she has liked in 16 years, she said it out, but since Qi Ao doesn't like herself, there is no need for her to put down her figure and pursue hard.
Qi Ao is not the only good man in the world, but Qi Ao is the only one who is so good. Since she has no chance to become a lover, she doesn't mind taking a step back, and there is no need to break the relationship that has been managed so hard.
Dongfang Qing's things that were thrown away along the way since meeting Qi'ao, now all returned to her, and turned into an even more dazzling brilliance. She stood in the hall, dressed in red, with a confident smile on her lips , attracting everyone's attention.
But among all these people, He Ranran, whose complexion suddenly changed, and Qi Ao, who was breathing in softly and holding back the pain, were not counted. Just now, Dongfang Qing's impartial palm just hit the place where he was bitten yesterday, and the force was a bit strong. Almost made Qi Ao cry out.
"Look at what to look at, and look again to dig out your eyes." Qi Ao heard Dongfang Qing's very familiar lines, and his shoulders didn't hurt so much. He looked at Dongfang Qing and shook his head with a gentle smile. With a doting look, he politely replied: "Then you should be careful all the way, we will definitely visit you when we are free."
Although she was mentally prepared, Dongfang Qing was still shocked by Qi Ao's smile, raised her hand to cover the blush on her face, and turned her head to divert her attention by saying something to He Ranran who had been silent all this time: "He Ranran, although You always talk without going through your brain, but for the sake of my brother, I will recognize you as a younger sister, and remember to come to me if you need anything in the future."
Having said so far, this should have been a happy ending. Dongfang Qing talked to Ran Ran with a smile for the first time. She waited in a good mood and nodded to Ran Ran, then waved her hand and turned to leave. Tian Qi'ao may pass by the Dongfang Mansion, but he can still invite him to stay in the Dongfang Mansion for a while.
"You are the most annoying!" He Ranran, who huddled himself into a ball as much as possible, and was neglected to the point of air, suddenly yelled, "You go, you go, everything has always been done according to your rules, now It was agreed to go to the lake, but if you don’t want to go, you don’t go, and if you say go home, you go home. Is there anyone else in your eyes!”
Pushing aside Qi Ao who was scared by Dongfang Qing and didn't know why, he and Ran Ran ran back to the room with red eyes.
"Who is she?" Dongfang Qing looked at Qi'ao in a state of bewilderment.
Qi Ao put on a comforting smile: "Probably because you suddenly said that you want to leave and she is a little bit reluctant."
"Is that so?" Dongfang Qing glanced strangely at the direction in which Ran Ran ran away, thought about it but couldn't figure out why, and spread her hands indifferently, "Then I'm leaving, you can help comfort Ran Ran Bar."
"Okay." Qi Ao replied with a polite smile.
☆, the past
After sending Dongfang Qing away, Qi Ao didn't intend to visit He Ranran, because when she was vulnerable and needed comfort, he shouldn't be there, so as not to have any incorrect emotional dependence on him.
The setting sun sprinkled orange red on the ground, and the clouds in the distance seemed to be burning red, a bright red that had never been seen before spread from the sky, the whole sky seemed to be overturned and the sky was on fire, sometimes some dazzling The golden color is the afterglow of the setting sun, but it is more dazzling against the gloomy twilight than at noon, it is the last beauty of the sun that is exhausting its life.
The wind in the evening blew the book in Qi'ao's hands with a trace of coolness. After turning over the last page this time, Qi'ao closed the book and looked around, and said, "It's evening in the blink of an eye, no wonder It feels a bit dim.”
Aoqi withdrew his momentum, closed his eyes and felt the true energy in his body slowly flowing along the meridians like a quiet river, then let out a breath slowly, stood up and closed the window, then looked at Qi'ao: "Don't go to comfort me And Ran Ran, aren't you afraid that she will run away?" There was a hint of ridicule in her speech.
Qi Ao didn't say anything to Ao Qi, he just counted the time by himself, then he nodded, put down the book in his hand and walked towards the door.
Leaning against the window and watching Qi Ao float towards the door as if his feet were not touching the ground, Ao Qi silently counted down "five four three two one" in his heart, and then saw Qi Ao's hand just covering the door latch and suddenly Turning around, squinting at himself for a while, he said, "You can go too."
The two looked at each other silently for a while, Ao Qi couldn't hold back at first and let out a "sneer", walked over and grabbed Qi Ao's shoulders and walked out together: "Have you thought about how to introduce me?"
"The fourth son of the Dugu family in Qianyue Mountain Villa." Qi'ao seemed not to take this question seriously at all, "I ran into Gu Qi'ao who looked like me on the way out and wanted to get acquainted with him."
Qi Ao, who wanted to go directly to the room with Ran Ran, was dragged downstairs by Ao Qi, and pressed against the table to watch Ao Qi order.The sky was getting dark, and Xiao Er hadn't lit a candle yet. Under the dim light, the appearance of the two of them was a bit blurry. Coupled with their completely different temperaments, no one would really think of them as one person at first glance.
When Xiao Er brought candles and food, Ao Qi happened to lower his head and fiddle with the jade pendant on Qi Ao's waist.Xiao Er saw that the people around Mr. Gu were acting intimately with him, and their vague features were very similar to Qi Ao, so he smiled and said casually: "Mr. Gu, is this your elder brother?"
Qi Ao also agreed very smoothly: "Exactly." Then he changed the subject naturally and ordered, "Prepare another meal for me, and I will bring it to you and the girl later."
Qi Ao and the others also lived in this inn for a few days, and they are outstanding in appearance, so it's hard not to attract attention. The behavior of a few people on weekdays is noticed by the little girls, and there is a lot of gossip in private. Hearing this Instructed Xiao Er to give an ambiguous "oh", and hurriedly agreed: "I'll help you get ready."
"The inexplicable master and servant, the fateful person I met by chance, the brother who looks alike, what identity are you going to give me next time?" Ao Qi checked whether the jade pendant was hung firmly, and then sat back in his seat, not forgetting Finally, he mocked Qi Ao.
Qi Ao knew that Ao Qi was a little aggrieved by the existence of two people who had to be one in the dark and the other in the dark, but he didn't really care who was in the dark and who was in the dark, so he couldn't help being a little funny: "Next time, say that I am your substitute." I don't feel much about these things, but Ao Qi cares more than myself.
Sure enough, the corners of Aoqi's mouth twitched when he heard Qi'ao's words, and he looked a little dark under the dim candlelight: "One day I will let you stand by my side in an upright manner, it's not like there can only be one person now. I Let everyone recognize our identities." For Ao Qi, Qi Ao is also himself, there is no reason why one is doing well and the other is not, there is always someone secretly making him feel aggrieved, He was born to be the center of attention, and so was Qi Ao, if Qi Ao found it troublesome, he would help Qi Ao achieve it.
What's more, once a fish that swims flexibly in the dark can be found in the light, it will be easier to catch it firmly. If an exclusive label can be printed, even the public can help monitor its tracks.
Qi Ao naturally understood Ao Qi's strange, almost stubborn "narcissism", and didn't say much about his ambiguous words. He gave him a chopstick and knocked on the side of Ao Qi's bowl: Eat, don't get hungry before standing up."
Qi Ao's smile is much prettier than Ao Qi's mouth twitching, like a piece of jade slowly flowing with light, not dazzling but attractive, as soon as you see it at first glance, you will drown and never come out again.Ao Qi stared at Qi Ao's face for a few seconds, finally snorted without saying anything, and lowered his head to eat.
He Ranran was woken up by the knock on the door, only to realize that it was already dark outside the window, she started crying in the morning, cried drowsily, and finally fell asleep from crying, it has been more than half a day.
She was still a little depressed in her heart, and she had been working hard to show that she wanted Dongfang Qing to notice her.In fact, no one would know if she didn't tell her. Compared to Gu Qi'ao, she was more concerned about Dongfang Qing who was always making noise.It was a very strange feeling. Dongfang Qing was not a few years older than her, but she was completely different from her.Dongfang Qing is just like the red dress on her body, dazzling and dazzling, she dares to say what she likes and also dares to say what she doesn't like.He Ranran grew up in Ruyifang since he was a child, and he was surrounded by women who were educated to be gentle and virtuous. It was the first time he saw Dongfang Qing with such vitality, so He Ranran wanted to get acquainted with her, make friends with her, and talk to her Talk, but the only topic between them is Mr. Gu.He Ranran is like a timid bird, hiding in the nest but not reconciled, stretching his head out but afraid of falling, but Dongfang Qing's words today cut off He Ranran's way to approach her slowly up.
For the first time in his life, the person he cared about, the friend who wanted to be together, just disappeared, and when he left, he mentioned himself because of Mr. Gu, and it was very frustrating to think of this and Ran Ran.That's right, Dongfang Qing was surrounded by a group of people at a glance, and Dongfang Qing would definitely not pay attention to people like herself.
"Miss He, are you still awake?" As the night darkened, the warm yellow candlelight outside the door became more obvious, and Qi Ao's rhythmic knock on the door and gentle voice sounded again, and He Ranran found himself After hanging the other party at the door for a while, he hurried over to open the door.
"Mr. Gu." He Ranran muttered, lowering his head and not daring to look at him, he was really embarrassed to let him hang out for so long just now.
Mr. Gu's voice sounded in front of him: "Seeing that you haven't been out all day, I think you haven't eaten yet, so I brought some for you." The voice was as gentle and gentle as Mr. Gu's, neither far nor near , I can't tell what's bad, but it's not just good for you.
At first, I thought Mr. Gu was the only one coming, but when he entered the door, it was obviously the footsteps of two people, and Ran Ran thought it was Qi Ao asking the waiter to bring the food, and after waiting for a while, he found that the other person had no intention of leaving, so he raised his head look over.
"You...you..." It wasn't the waiter who was holding the food, but Qiao himself. Jean and Ranran opened their mouths wide in shock, and it took a long time to spit out the word "you". It was the one with Qiao behind Qiao face man.
Qi Ao didn't seem to notice her rude behavior, she put the food on the table and said to He Ranran: "Miss He, come and eat something to fill your stomach first, and I'll tell you what's going on while eating."
The meals that Qi Ao prepared for He Ranran were light and delicious, very suitable for people who hadn't eaten for most of the day, and the taste was also liked by He Ranran.He Ranran was very moved in her heart, although she knew that Mr. Gu didn't like her, but he was so kind to everyone, he was really a caring and gentle person that made people's heart flutter.
Seeing that He Ranran started drinking soup, Ao Qi and Qi Ao sat down, and then Qi Ao explained the matter to He Ran Ran.
In Qi Ao's narration, he and Ao Qi met in the teahouse on the first night, when he suddenly met someone who looked exactly like him, he couldn't help sighing how wonderful the world is, and out of curiosity, he went up to talk to him, one was from an ordinary family Scholar, the other is the fourth son of Qianyue Mountain Villa, and after a few chats, he hit it off very well. Later, he heard that Aoqi came to this inn, which was related to Ruyifang. stay down.I originally planned to ask Aoqi to ask some questions along the way during the introduction tonight, but seeing that He Ranran was in such a bad mood, I decided to give up.
He Ranran heard Qi Ao say this, and hastily put down his chopsticks: "It's okay, you can just ask me, Mr. Dugu, I'm fine." Mr. Gu took care of her too much, worried that she would be hungry and even brought her a special meal , even if she was still worried about her mood at this time, she was thinking about how to repay Mr. Gu, but when she came across this opportunity, she naturally took it.
Fortunately, she is in a much better mood now, and it's not a big deal to be a little bored. If Mr. Gu came a few hours earlier, I'm afraid that she will not be able to control herself and cry on him.
Thinking of this and Ran Ran quietly looked at Qi'ao's shoulder, imagined the scene secretly in her heart, pursed her lips and smiled, suddenly felt two gloomy eyes on her body, which made her tremble, and made the little girl in her heart tremble. My mind was also shaken.
I really cried for too long to feel that Mr. Dugu and Mr. Gu resemble each other.
Unconsciously flinching, He Ranran asked Ao Qi timidly: "If there is anything you want to know, my lord, I will know everything without saying it."
Lonely Aoqi was not polite at all, and asked her straight to the point about the three generations of Ruyifang. When Aoqi couldn't explain clearly to Ran Ran, he asked her again and again.
In the end, Qi Ao couldn't stand it any longer, and interjected: "It's getting late today, you and the girl should rest first, I really trouble you today." At the same time, he gave Ao Qi a wink.Ao Qi nodded clearly, and stood up together with Qi Ao.
He Ranran also stood up, her face was pale and shaking, she was sweating coldly when she saw Ao Qi, and it became a laborious thing to make a sound with a lump in her throat: "It's okay, I may still miss it." I’ve figured it out, and I’ll talk to you guys tomorrow when I think about it.”
After sending the two of them to the door, Qi Ao turned around and said to He Ranran with concern: "Your complexion is not good, you should go to bed early, and I will bring the food for you."
He Ranran wanted to say a few more words to Mr. Gu, but the aura of Dugu Aoqi next to Mr. Gu was terrifying, so in the end he just said thank you softly and closed the door.
There was no one in the lobby, and the candles in several guest rooms had already been extinguished. A clerk squinted his eyes in a daze on the counter, and the flame of the oil lamp beside him flickered occasionally.
"Excuse me." The voice was obviously not particularly loud, and it could even be called gentle, but it woke up the guy, "You have to clean up this trouble.
The guy who was awakened in anger saw that it was Mr. Gu, and the dissatisfaction on his face was wiped away and turned into a smile, and he immediately responded in a good voice: "No trouble, no trouble, it's us who sent Mr. Gu down." That's wrong. How about this, what Mr. Gu wants to eat tomorrow morning, we will prepare it for you in advance."
Qi Ao thought for a while, and just about to speak, another voice came from the stairs behind: "I have heard that Yunze's four-flavored cake is a must in Yunze, and two bowls of porridge will be delivered to the room tomorrow morning."
Only then did the man realize that there was a person standing on the stairs leading to the second floor. Because the light was too dark, he hadn't seen him all the time. He hurriedly smiled professionally in the direction of Aoqi in the darkness: "Mr. Gu, I'm sorry I didn't see you Hearing Aoqi's "hmm", the buddy gave Qi'ao a kind suggestion, "It's so late, Mr. Gu can't find a place to stay when he goes out, why don't we just stay in the small shop for a night and then open another one?" room?"
Qi Ao shook his head: "No need, my brother and I can sleep in one room." After saying that, Qi Ao didn't want an oil lamp to illuminate the road and turned back into the darkness. The clerk opened his eyes wide and couldn't see beyond the range illuminated by the light. In such a situation, only a few low voices of the two could be heard.
"Be careful, pull me."
"It's not that dark, but it's still visible."
……
"Let me ask tomorrow. You scared people enough today."
"But the effect is also obvious, isn't it?"
"Yes……"
The author has something to say:
☆, Ruyi
Ao Qi held the still warm Mian Yunnuo in his hand, propped up an oiled paper umbrella, lowered the eaves of the umbrella, intentionally or unintentionally covering his eyebrows, hurried across the stone bridge, passed an alley, crossed again Enter the trail and turn left and right along the stone road, surrounded by old wood soaked in the smell of moisture, which gives a unique feeling of a small southern town.Pushing open a small shop in the depths of the alley, the dust and musty smell of the rainy season came over us. The first floor, which was originally backlit and closed the doors and windows, was dark and shabby. The creaking of wooden planks did not wake him up.
In the only bright room, Qi Ao was slowly talking to Ran Ran about some fairy tales written in books, such as the crown prince abdicating the throne and the second prince becoming a happy fairy, the ancient gods always bring a fairy with them. There is a well-behaved little servant who can hear and Ran Ran has bright eyes.Familiar footsteps approached from far away, Qi Ao was still talking about the story, but he took the cup beside him and poured out the cold tea in it, and took the jug beside him, the clear and transparent wine came from Poured out of the jug, with a faint sweetness.As soon as the wine was filled, the emerald green dish containing the soft and white pastry was placed beside her hand, Qi Ao slightly turned sideways and stretched out her hand to wipe away the moisture from Ao Qi's body: "You came back just in time, Mr. Ru will be here soon."
When Ran Ran saw Ao Qi, he trembled unconsciously, and moved back slightly to get away from Qi Ao.Ao Qi glanced at her unintentionally, sat down beside Qi Ao, and listened to Qi Ao's soft-spoken explanation: "Perhaps the local people may not know that Chun Shanlu, who has been missed by the Emperor for so many years, actually Buried in the courtyard of this small shop, it’s a pity that the wine maker has passed away long ago, and this wine is one of the few.” After that, he pointed to Mian Yunnuo, “Chunshanlu paired with this Mianyunnuo is a must in the local area. It is said that the wine maker of Chunshanlu and the pastry chef of Mianyunnuo were the same people who lived together, ate and lived together, but then the two suddenly fell out for some reason, one east of the city and the other west of the city. Contact each other."
After listening to Qi Ao's introduction, Ao Qi took the wine that Qi Ao poured for him, took a sip of the warm Mianyun Nuo according to Qi Ao's method, and then drank the Chunshanlu in the cup. , it really seems that spring has grown between the lips and teeth, and it is He Qiao's usual favorite taste.
Just as he was planning to take two more altars back home for Qi Ao to taste slowly, he heard two "pops", and a man walked in from the door. The temperament precipitated by time is excellent, and people can notice him in the crowd at a glance.The man was holding a jade bone ink side fan, with faint lines of smile on the corners of his eyes, walked into the room and slightly bowed his hands to everyone: "
