Biganchun

Daxiangguo Temple is not far to the east, and there are tea shops densely along the street. One of them is a small medicine shop, which is quite inconspicuous among many grand businesses.

It was hot weather, and the store door had been open since early morning, with only a half-old curtain hung to keep out the heat.I saw the half-worn door curtain was lifted, and the sky was filled with light, and a young woman came in.The clerk behind the ebony counter hurriedly greeted with a smile: "Hi girl! What do you buy?"

The woman was dressed in plain clothes, lowered her head slightly, thoughtful, but there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, she seemed to be in a good mood.Hearing the clerk's question, she raised her eyes, turned her gaze to the back of the counter, and said with a smile, "Help me weigh the four-dollar musk."

The guy felt that he had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life, so he couldn't help staring straight, and was startled for a moment, before he came back to his senses and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go and weigh you."

The guy turned around and took out a pack of musk from the medicine cabinet drawer, carefully picked out a handful with a silver spoon, and weighed it on a small copper scale.The woman stood by the counter and waited quietly.

At this time, the business was quiet, and in another corner of the store, two shop assistants were cutting astragalus with a small guillotine, while chatting with each other.

I only heard an old man chuckle softly: "Xiao Qi, do you know that our Master Zhan from Kaifeng Mansion is probably going to get married soon!"

The guy named Xiaoqi opened his eyes wide, and said in surprise: "How could it be? Mr. Dong, you always listen to the wind and the rain, there is no way!"

Dong Boss snorted: "The shopkeeper Wang of Baicaotang told me personally, how could it be false? Didn't I go to Baicaotang to get medicine a few days ago? That day, it happened that Mr. Zhan came here with a girl Baicaotang came to look for a herbal medicine. I just caught a glimpse of the back, but I didn't get a closer look. After they left, I heard from Shopkeeper Wang that the girl is Master Zhan's fiancée!"

Xiao Qi hurriedly said: "Master Zhan's fiancée, isn't Miss Ding San from Songjiang Mansion? I heard that this third lady has been keeping filial piety for her dead brother in her hometown for several years. If she really came this time, maybe It's true that the marriage with Mr. Zhan is coming soon!"

Mr. Dong smiled and said: "That's right, Mr. Zhan and Ms. Ding San made a marriage agreement early in the morning. Who knows? Shopkeeper Wang also said that it was the first time he met Miss Ding San that day. The third lady is elegant and elegant, gentle and gentle." You are polite, he has lived for more than 50 years, and he has never seen such a person before!"

Xiao Qi nodded, and said with a smile: "If it weren't for that, how could we be worthy of Mr. Zhan? Speaking of which, Mr. Zhan has gone through many hardships and dangers for the Kaifeng Mansion over the years. It really makes people feel distressed. He sees that his thirties are approaching, if he marries Miss Ding San this time, he will finally have a caring person by his side..."

Tou'er Dong shook his head and smiled: "Master Zhan's personality, who in the neighborhood in Bianjing doesn't know? I'm afraid that even if he gets married, he must still be the same as before. He completely forgot when he started the case." own."

Xiaoqi nodded, and said again: "Is the shopkeeper Wang serious? Is that girl definitely Miss Ding San?"

Director Dong laughed and said, "How powerful is Shopkeeper Wang's eyesight? Besides, for a decent person like Mr. Zhan, have you seen that he usually walks with some young woman in private? You can't be wrong. It must be Ms. Ding San! That day, although I didn't see the front, I looked at the back. She seemed to be wearing a light blue dress, standing next to Mr. Zhan, she was a perfect match..."

Before the words were finished, the clerk at the counter called repeatedly: "Girl, girl... please stay a little longer..."

Head Dong raised his head and frowned and said, "Fang Er, what are you yelling about here? Can someone else forget that you are here?"

Fang Er said with a bitter face: "You only care about yourselves having a good chat, I have lost a customer here! Didn't you see just now, a girl came in and asked for four dollars for musk. I finally weighed it and wrapped it up, she But his expression changed, he turned around and left without saying a word. What's going on here?"

Mr. Dong stood up, walked outside the store and looked left and right on the street.There were people coming and going on the street, but they didn't see any young women, so they turned their heads and said: "The summer is long, and there is still half a day's business, what's the rush?

Although the summer days are long, they will eventually come to an end.Unknowingly, the silky willows beside the Bian River have shed the afterglow of the sun, and hang down in the night wind.The flashy day and night, once close at hand, but in the end it was only a glimpse, and it slid away soundlessly, without a trace in an instant.

Qingfeng Building.

The moon returns.

The white clothes are still the same, there is a bottle full of wine, but he will be full of deep thoughts, completely forgetting the unexpected reunion during the day.

I knew I shouldn't trust that girl Qingcheng.A short note for no reason invited him to the West Back Temple of Daxiangguo Temple. Although he had some inexplicable premonitions in his heart, he still did not expect that the person who waited quietly for him was someone he had never forgotten in his heart. .

When they saw each other suddenly, she was as surprised as he was, bit her cherry lips lightly, and there was a little sadness in her eyes, just like the moment when he rescued her in the mountains and lifted the car curtain that day.

The titles of the past, penetrated the silent years, gathering and parting, and Piao Miao coming towards him, which caught him off guard.

"Fifth Master...don't come here without any problems..."

His heart suddenly relaxed.After all, she understood him, so she didn't call him with a cold call from Master Bai.He is still her fifth master.

His heart fluctuated, and he forced a smile at her, but stayed on the spot, not going any closer to her.He secretly rejoiced in his heart, fortunately those four elder brothers were not here at the moment, otherwise he would have laughed at him for being so at a loss.

"...that day the water was blue and dyed..." She looked into his eyes and choked thousands of words in her throat, but finally she only uttered two words softly: "...thank you..."

He felt a pain in his heart, but he raised his sword eyebrows, and his face was full of indifference that she used to see back then: "It's just a small matter, Fourth Miss don't need to worry about it."

He glanced at her without any trace, and his sharp eyes suddenly became deep. He turned around and said indifferently: "Bai has something else to do, excuse me."

She was shocked in her heart, and couldn't help catching up a step: "Fifth Lord!"

He slowed down, put away the sleeves of his robe slightly, and said calmly: "Miss Fourth, is there anything else?"

She hesitated for a while, then stopped talking.The shade of locust trees is dense, as thick as autumn clouds, covering her whole body.

Without waiting for her to speak, he suddenly said: "I've been in the capital these days, and I've heard quite a few stories about the Second Young Master Wang, you..."

This sentence has no beginning and no end, it came suddenly, but it seemed to be expected by her.She gave a wry smile, but she wasn't embarrassed at all: "I... understand what kind of person he is."

He frowned tightly, still refusing to turn his head: "You...you really don't care?"

She smiled sadly: "It doesn't make any difference to me who I marry."

He didn't expect her to say these words, for some reason, his heart was filled with [-]% anger for the rest of his life: "Have you thought about the important things in your life?"

She slowly said: "As a woman, it's hard to live with my own life... I can't help myself, no matter where I go, I'm always the same."

The voice was as light as a flying feather, but it stirred up thousands of waves in his heart.For a moment he just wanted to turn his head back, but he gritted his teeth and held back: "You have lived your life like this, are you willing?"

Seeing that he didn't look back, the tears in her eyes were like beads, and she couldn't help but fall on her cheeks: "Nine out of ten things that don't go your way in this world... God's will, how can manpower force it?"

Looking at each other through tears, seeing him also bowed his head and remained silent.She took a step forward: "Fifth Master, we will see each other soon after we leave this place... I only hope that Fifth Master will go here, the sea and the sky will be brighter, and everything will go well."

Something in his heart seemed to collapse silently at this moment, and he wanted to say something, but his throat was choked.He closed his eyes tightly, feeling nothing but emptiness in his chest.Exhausting all the strength in his body, he opened his eyes again, stretched his sleeves heavily, and walked out of the monastery quickly, without even uttering a word of appreciation.

When his consciousness gradually recovered, he had already sat in the Qingfeng Building again.Supporting the case by the window, Li Huachun poured a full cup, reflecting the bright moon outside the sky, full of depression.

After an unknown amount of time, he raised his wine glass, but before he touched his lips, he suddenly felt a faint and resentful breath, which seemed to be behind him.He suddenly looked back, but saw Qingcheng standing quietly on the ground without saying a word.

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows, and forced a smile: "You girl, you really have supernatural powers. I thought that the day of Tianshuibi, you and I have already ended, but who would have thought that you would find her and deceive me?" Seeing her... I'm not in the mood to argue with you right now, just sit down and have a drink or two with me, and I won't delve into what happened today."

Qingcheng silently sat down beside him, reaching out to pick up an empty cup on the table.Bai Yutang lifted the jug and filled the cup.The light of the cup was slightly rippling, the color was like pear blossoms, Qingcheng glanced at it lightly, raised the cup, and drank it down in one gulp.

She had never drank alcohol before, but now she was aroused by the alcohol, and she only felt her internal organs throbbing, and she was in great pain.She held her heart with her left hand, her brows were deeply furrowed, and she could not speak.Seeing her like this, Bai Yutang was startled, and let go of his worries a bit: "Girl, what happened?"

Qingcheng shook his head, but still without saying a word, he snatched the jug from Bai Yutang's hand, filled another glass, and drank it up.

When she raised her hand again, Bai Yutang stretched out his arm, pressed heavily on the pot, and said with a frown: "Although the color of this pear blossom spring is light, the alcohol is the strongest. Your alcohol is weak, and you can drink it like this. I'm afraid I'll be drunk if I don't drink three cups."

Qingcheng shook her head, with an extremely lonely expression: "Didn't you want to invite me to have a drink that day? It's so easy for me to feel this way today, so why do you stop me?"

Bai Yutang saw that her hair was flying, her eyes were full of tears, and her behavior was very different from usual, he was even more surprised, and asked in a deep voice, "Where did you get angry?"

Qingcheng was still silent, and suddenly lowered her head, a drop of clear tears fell into the cup silently and shattered, the dots were crystal clear, and could not be found again.

Bai Yutang's heart moved, he stood up suddenly, pushed the seat behind him, turned around and was about to go downstairs, but Qingcheng grabbed his sleeve in an instant, and asked in a low voice, "Where are you going?"

Bai Yutang snorted, turned around and said, "Where else could it be? Go to Kaifeng Mansion and find him to settle the score!"

Qingcheng avoided his gaze, lowered her head and said, "You... how do you know it's related to him?"

Bai Yutang shook his head and sighed: "There is no one in this world who is capable of making you cry, except for that cat, I'm afraid there is no one else..."

He seems to be informal, but in fact he has a meticulous heart and is not inferior to Zhan Zhao in the slightest.All kinds of things between Qingcheng and Zhan Zhao, he has been watching coldly these days, he already knows it in his heart, but he never said a word.At this time, seeing that Qingcheng was hurt by love for some reason, he couldn't help being filled with anger, and returned to his usual righteousness: "Others dare not provoke him, but I, Bai Yutang, want to fight for justice for you!"

Qingcheng shook her head and smiled wryly: "In this world, what's the justice? You're so eloquent at the moment, but in fact, you're just like him... Many things just keep me in the dark..."

Bai Yutang suddenly understood.Since he met Qingcheng, this has been on his mind.Usually, when I see the love of the city, I always don't want to mention it.At this moment, there was no way to avoid it, so I had to mumble: "This... I thought that sooner or later that cat would tell you about Daoming... who knows... who knows..."

Qingcheng was stunned for a moment, let out a long sigh, and let go of her hand.She suddenly put away all her desolate look, picked up the wine pot again, filled both empty glasses, and said quietly: "Forget it... I was just looking for troubles for myself, why bother to involve others? If you If you really want to help me, stay here for a moment... I've never drank alone late at night, but I think it won't taste too good..."

Seeing her like this, Bai Yutang couldn't help but sighed deeply: "You've hurt you so far, but you still defend him so much, what's the reason?"

Qingcheng was stunned for a while, drank the wine in the glass, and said sadly: "There are thousands of sufferers in Kaifeng Mansion, and I am just one of them. It was only because of the case of Ganzhou that we got involved with him... Now that I woke up in shock, thinking about it carefully, he has treated me with the utmost benevolence and righteousness, and he has done nothing wrong..."

She lowered her brows and said slowly: "I was just confused for a while... I even forgot that he and I were not on the same road... Now that the dust has settled, it is better than being obsessed with it..." Before he finished speaking, he spit out a mouthful of blood and spilled all of it on the table.

Bai Yutang was shocked, leaned over to support her body, and said anxiously: "You...you are..."

Qingcheng coughed a few times, slowly adjusted her breathing, and said lightly: "It's okay, I'll feel much better after vomiting out this mouthful of blood."

Bai Yutang frowned deeply, and said in a deep voice, "You wait for me here, and I'll go find a doctor right away."

Qingcheng shook her head and said, "No need. Don't forget, I'm a half-doctor anyway, and I know my own affairs best."

Bai Yutang punched the table hard, staring at Qingcheng's eyes: "You girl, why are you so confused! Sadness is minor, but life is major. You look like this, so you won't be afraid that he will be worried when he sees you!"

Qingcheng's eyes wandered, and she passed Bai Yutang, not knowing where to turn her eyes: "In this world, it is indeed a blessing to have someone who can make you worry, and who can also worry about you... But, after tonight, I will be with you." Between them, I'm afraid we don't have to worry about each other anymore..."

This sentence fit Bai Yutang's thoughts all night, he felt a deep pain in his heart, and thought of Yan Rusi's farewell words to him for a moment, he felt that although the world is big and the love is deep, but the fate is determined in the end, there is nothing he can do about it.His heart is usually higher than the sky, but now he feels disheartened, completely meaningless.

He stood in front of the table, reached out to pick up his wine glass, and slowly raised it to his face.His fingers trembled slightly, and there was a trace of wine on the white clothes.

Nothing can be eliminated, the fate is scattered like water.

I had to get drunk all night.
