There is a newly opened dim sum shop in Qingxia City. The name is simple enough to show how lazy the person who chose the name is.

Currently there are only three shopkeepers and one shopkeeper in the shop. The boss doesn't see anyone for three days, but the business in the shop is always booming.

The time-honored shop across the street is also famous for its snacks.But now he couldn't resist the attack of new things, the boss gritted his teeth, wishing that one day a big rock would fall from the sky and destroy the competitor's store, but that was just a daydream, so he could only grab his handkerchief and watch Lao Gu Ye pamper him newcomer.

It can't be blamed that the time-honored brands can't compare with others, because the opponents are too powerful.My shopkeeper is an old man over half a century old, with white hair and beard, squinted eyes and wrinkled face, although he is kind and kind, but look at the other party - he is only a young man in his early twenties, wearing a dark suit, neat and tidy, with sloppy hair It was tied behind the neck, and his face was evil and a bit ruffian.

The opponent is also tall and has a strong body. It looks like he has practiced martial arts for a long time.But it was the same when picking up the abacus, the fingering was proficient, the beads of the abacus ticked, and there was never a mistake.

It's no wonder that the girls in Qingxia City run there all day long, and even the young women who have already left the court always find excuses to go there to buy things, and at the door of this time-honored shop, there are only a few old women who are over fifty years old They will join hands and slowly come here to buy some snacks that have been eaten for many years.

It would be fine if there was only one handsome shopkeeper, but the three guys in the store were also very handsome.

One is gorgeous and indifferent, and occasionally sings some ditties in the store. His voice and figure are comparable to famous actors in the theater; The other is like a grandson of my own family; there is another one who was recruited recently. He is honest and hardworking.

The fresh things in the store and these few people are simply invincible. The time-honored store can't resist, so it can only sigh.

Leaving aside the grievances of competitors all day long, the dim sum shop is as harmonious as usual.

Jiang Ji was looking at the ledger behind the counter, but his eyes peeked at the hall from time to time. A thin body walked through it, with a friendly smile on his face, black hair standing up on the back of his head, he was much more energetic, but right now The dark circles under the eyes revealed some clues.

The brush in Jiang Ji's hand unconsciously touched the ink tray, Hua Que leaned over beside him, looked at him, and then at Gu Xiao.

"Brother Jiang."

Jiang Ji was taken aback and came back to his senses, "Mr. Hua, what's the matter?"

Hua Que lowered her voice, "What's wrong with Xiao Gu?"

Jiang Ji didn't move his face, but his eyes darkened, and his voice faded, "Who knows."

This statement is naturally a lie, of course he knows it, and he is very clear.A few days ago, news came from the womb that the crown prince got married, and the person he married was the daughter of a certain important official, and he also took in two concubines, who were said to be the distant sisters of General You.

The news was naturally leaked from Sikong Lang. After that, although Gu Xiao didn't show much on the surface, he would occasionally startled or a little absent-minded.

Jiang Ji curled his lips, and out of the corner of his eyes, he caught sight of the newly recruited clerk Lu Lin walking towards Gu Xiao. The man was a head taller than Gu Xiao. He was bowing his head and saying something at this time. Gu Xiao nodded, and smiled again after a while.

Hua Que lowered his head in astonishment, only to see that the brush in Jiang Ji's hand was split in two.

"Brother Jiang?"

"Hmm..." Jiang Ji put aside his problem and walked out from behind the counter, "It's getting hot, I'll go get some ice cubes."

……

In the fifth month after Hanyue Palace and Lanhua faction lost power, Yilan began to recover its vitality.The rebuilding of Qingxia City went smoothly, and even the surrounding villages and towns that had been washed away by the flood were rejuvenated. Sikong Lang sat here, kept a low profile, and did his best to be loved and respected by the people. This is why Sikong Lang later claimed that he married The male princess laid a solid foundation, so that the two of them were not hindered in any way, but instead received a round of applause.

At that time, the relationship between Jiang Ji and Gu Xiao was gradually noticed by the people around him.

The new buddy, Lu Lin, used to be a soldier. He participated in the battle of Qingxia City and was wounded. After retiring, he was introduced by Sikong Lang to be a buddy here.This person has been very close to Gu Xiao recently, although he doesn't talk much, but Gu Xiao seems to be very dependent on him.Jiang Ji's anger has become as hot as the weather recently, making everyone who enters the store a little trembling, but if something good happens, they feel curious, and always feel that something will happen between Jiang Ji and Lu Lin.

As for their competitors, the time-honored snack shops, they were more than happy to see their internal strife, and even sent people to trip them up and spread rumors among the crowd.

Jiang Ji was not someone to be provoked, and Lu Lin had blood on his hands. When these two faced each other, they were like beasts in the forest, refusing to give in to each other.

It's just that the person involved was not what other people thought. At least Lu Lin looked the same as usual, as if he didn't feel the turmoil in the dark at all.

Gu Xiao heard some rumors, and went to find Lu Lin on purpose, "Brother Lu."

The young man was a little worried. Although his body was still thin, he was much stronger than before. This also had something to do with Jiang Ji forcing him to eat all day long.

"..." The man was always silent, and just looked up at him.

"You and the shopkeeper..." The young man weighed his words, "Have you had any disputes?"

"No."

"Then...you accidentally offended the shopkeeper?"

The man thought for a while, then shook his head slowly, "No."

Gu Xiao pursed her lips, waiting to say more, but a cold voice came from behind, "In your eyes, am I such a difficult person to get along with?"

Gu Xiao froze, turned her head and smiled dryly, "No... I didn't mean that."

Lu Lin straightened up, nodded to Jiang Ji as a greeting, and subconsciously rubbed Gu Xiao's hair.He brushed past Jiang Ji, and obviously felt the hostility emanating from the man. Lu Lin walked a few steps, then stopped in doubt, tilted his head and thought for a moment, but he couldn't think of the reason, so he had to leave.

Jiang Ji stretched out his hand and brushed Pogu Xiao's tousled hair, as if trying to flick something away, his face was a little gloomy.

"Didn't sleep well again?" He pinched Gu's chin, forced Gu to look up, and asked with squinted eyes.

Gu Xiao resisted a little, and stepped back, but Jiang Ji exerted more force on his hands, causing him to stop and answer with difficulty, "It's okay..."

"Is this okay?" Jiang Ji was a little angry, and blurted out, "Are you still thinking about that Sikong Shen?"

Gu Xiao's face turned pale.

Jiang Ji felt a little regretful, holding back for so long without breaking through, why did he speak now without even thinking about it?The timing is not right...

Just seeing that he has a good relationship with Lu Lin, and remembering the bad example of Sikong Shen before, it is inevitable that he will become irritable.

Taking a ten thousand step back, if we were to rank them in order, apart from Cang Qiao and Sikong Shen, I would be the one who spent the longest time with him, why did my relationship with him not grow, but a new guy who came to him Like an old friend?

Shopkeeper Jiang refused to admit that he was jealous, but his heart was slowly getting angry, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

"Come with me!" After pulling the young man's hand, he dragged him back to the yard behind the store. He, Gu Xiao and Lu Lin each had their own rooms here. Very comfortable.

Gu Xiao was at a loss, and didn't know where he had offended the other party, and was dragged all the way into the room by the other party.The door slammed shut, Gu Xiao frowned, "The business ahead is still..."

"Don't worry about that first." Jiang Ji roared subconsciously, and then realized that he was too fierce. He took a deep breath and adjusted his emotions, "Gu Xiao, you should have your own life, and you can't always live in the past. Sikong Shen now As a prince, he and you will never be able to."

In fact, why doesn't Gu Xiao himself know?There are some truths that others don't explain, but they are clear to themselves, but there are some things that cannot be let go just by reasoning.

If it was placed on Cang Qiao, he, a reborn modern person, would have seen a lot of these things. No one owes love to anyone, and he can't tell right from wrong. Unfortunately, the earth does not revolve around a person, who would not live without it?

But Gu Xiao, a native of Yilan, is far from being so open-minded.According to the iron law here, he was originally of low status, even if he later became Cang Qiaotong, even if he ate well, his status did not change much.In short, they are all slaves, and they all have to bow their knees. They are used to seeing the people above giving orders, and they are also used to seeing the warmth and warmth of the world. What does the prince mean to him?

The heir of a country is born with nobility, which is something that he will not be able to get if he lives for hundreds of years.The gap between Yokogaki's two worlds is huge, but also because of the huge gap, so he worships and admires him.But that person shrouded in the golden light and seemingly unreachable has been so close to him in his life.

Even if it's just chatting with nothing to do, it's like a great favor, and the concern revealed intentionally or unintentionally by the other party is also an important factor that makes me fall into deep trouble.I even thought that I could do anything for that person, even if I died.

Even if the ideal is disillusioned now, even if that person is different from what I imagined, but this deep-rooted feeling is not so easy to pull away.

"I... know." Gu Xiao lowered his head, the black hair on his forehead blocked his expression, "Of course I know, I... didn't think..."

He didn't want to climb high, and he didn't want to continue to be passionate, he just needed time.

Jiang Ji looked at him, and for some reason in his head, he suddenly remembered Cang Qiao's intentional or unintentional words before: "The best way to let a person get out of a broken relationship is to invest in a new relationship."

This was what Cang Qiao whispered to herself when everyone gathered for dinner.At that time, he didn't realize the deep meaning, but now, he suddenly understood.That was Cang Qiao's hint to herself, and it was also an encouragement.

That's all, instead of procrastinating so half-death, it's better to just have a refreshment.

Just as he thought this way in his mind, his hands moved. He pulled Gu Xiao over and pressed the table behind him, before waiting for the other party's reaction, he kissed him.

The long chirping of cicadas outside the window prolongs the summer, the two of them are sweating profusely in the heat, but the hot kiss is uninterrupted.

Gu Xiao panicked and avoided, but was pulled by Jiang Ji and refused to let go.No matter where he fled, the tip of his possessive tongue would roll over, swearing hegemony, with an indescribable persistence.

Gu Xiao's eyes became hot, and she stretched out her hand to press Jiang Ji's shoulder to push it away, but the other hand rubbed his chest, and stretched it down into the obscene pants.

"do not want!"

Taking advantage of the emptiness of panting, Gu Xiao screamed out in panic.Jiang Ji paused, looked up at him, there was a bit of disappointment and self-deprecating in the dark eyes, "Can't I?"

Gu Xiao was stunned.

"Only Sikong Shen can do it? Can't I?" Jiang Ji gave up on himself, and kissed Gu Xiao's chin again, biting lightly as if to vent his anger, causing the other party to groan.

"I can't give you anything except those belongings from the royal family, I'll give you everything else you want." Jiang Ji said sullenly: "I can give you what he can't give you."

Gu Xin's mouth moved, as if a big hole had been torn open suddenly.Because he was burdened with guilt towards the young master, he didn't dare to express his own feelings, and he couldn't tell anyone, but the weight on his shoulders was getting heavier day by day.

What exactly is love?He looked at Eldest Young Master and Second Young Master, Hua Que and Eighth Prince, but he couldn't think of a clue.

But they look very happy, why can they laugh so happily, as if there is nothing they want in this world anymore.

Be it grievances or sadness, even with some self-deprecating misery, but I can't vent it.

Tears flowed down, soaking the corners of his eyes.Why has the relationship between him and Jiang Ji been so close, because Jiang Ji's dominance is exactly the same as Sikong Shen's, self-confidence, as if he is firmly in control of people, making him afraid.So he dodged subconsciously, but Lu Lin's kindness was like a big brother next door, allowing him to breathe.

That's all.

But now this person's words... subverted everything he could imagine.It turned out that he also had uneasiness and such lost times.

Whatever I want... can I give it?

Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't tell whether he was happy, relieved, relieved or helpless.The taste is complicated and mixed in my heart.

Jiang Ji sighed and kissed his lips again, breathing in and out, Gu Xiaosong resisted forcefully, as if hesitating.

Jiang Ji was overjoyed, put his forehead on his head and said hoarsely: "Stay with me, don't think about others."

Gu Xiao pursed her lips, her face was burning with fire, and said reluctantly: "I...you...you...let me down first."

"Okay." Jiang Ji smiled, not refusing, but hopeful.

Carrying him down, and helping him straighten his clothes, his gestures were pampering, Gu Xiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't dare to look up.

Not far away, someone hid behind a bush and touched his chin, "Yun Qing, do you think they will succeed or not?"

Xia Yunqing sighed, "I don't know."

"Just go back and add aphrodisiac/medicine to the meals of the two of them."

Xia Yunqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she turned her head and saw Lu Lin standing beside him, who was still holding the laundry to be washed.

Cang Qiao also turned her head, "I thought you would be jealous."

Lu Lin was puzzled, "Why?"

"Don't you like him very much?"

"...Don't you think..." Lu Lin's unsmiling face rarely showed a smile, but he was still a little shy, "Does Gu Xiao look like a puppy? I like canines..."

Cang Qiao, Yun Qing: "..."
