storytelling

The cost of food and clothing is slightly better than that of concubines from other big families.

Jinyu is a contented person and easily satisfied.Whoever is kind to him, bit by bit, he remembers in his heart, silently looking for opportunities to repay.If it weren't for this period of time, Liu Li's bullying tricks had become more and more excessive, and Jin Yu would have broken his teeth and swallowed all the innocuous troubles on weekdays.

But now...

You can't kill him, can you?

Thinking of this, Jin Yu was suddenly taken aback by her bold and reckless thoughts.Don't say it can't be done, even if it can be done, Jinyu will never do it.

Dazedly, Jinyu recalled those imaginative scenes in Liu Li's room before, and the more she thought about it, the more ashamed she felt, and she wished she could find a crack in the ground and never come out again.

When I was struggling, 'Bang tom! Suddenly, his nose bumped into Liu Li's back in front of him.

"What are you thinking? You've been out of your mind all day long!" Liu Li turned around and scolded as expected.

Jinyu covered half of her face, even though the bridge of her nose hurt so much that tears were rolling in her eyes, she didn't dare to make a sound.

Xindao: Well done, why did you stop all of a sudden?

Liu Li lost his voice.Jinyu looked up strangely, only to see Liu Li slapping the handle of the fan he was holding into his palm with a 'slap', looking at Jinyu with interest with a smirk on his face.

Jinyu hated him looking at him with admiring eyes, as if he was not a human being, so he immediately turned his head, his eyes wandered, and looked elsewhere.Who knew that Liu Li was a hooligan, he used the top of the fan handle to lift Jin Yu's chin, forcing him to look at him.

Naturally, Jinyu was unwilling, so she kept her head as long as she could. As a result, the sideways glance at Liu Li turned into a winking look, and she didn't even know it.

The eyes were already swollen from crying before, and now there are still tears in the eye sockets, which are crystal clear, and the cheeks are pink and tender, and for some reason, they are red, connecting the neck, and going straight into the ears, giving off a stubborn look, angry Puffy, like a steamed bun just out of the cage.

Liu Li was in a good mood as he watched.

"Although you are ugly, you are ugly, but... the taste is not bad."

Taking advantage of Jinyu's dazed moment, Liu Li suddenly lowered his head and approached Jinyu, and after a teasing sentence, he was satisfied to see Jinyu's expression of shame and indignation after he could bear it again and again, "Hehe..." He straightened up and smiled. Be flamboyant.

Jinyu was about to speak, but Liu Li had withdrawn the handle of his fan, and said to Jinyu, "Go in." After speaking, he opened the fan with a 'shua', swayed slowly, picked up the hem of his clothes, and stepped into the front door gracefully. hall threshold.

Only then did Jinyu realize that the reason why Liu Li stopped suddenly just now was because the two of them had already reached the entrance of the front hall.

Animals!

Still a beast in clothes!

Jinyu was very impulsive for a moment, and wanted to rush in the door, in front of everyone, tear the real face of this bastard for everyone to see; and the 'good things' he did to himself, everything...

Jin Yu's palms were clenched into fists in the sleeves of Liu Li's gorgeous and slightly wide clothes.

Even men can't bear this tone!do my best!

Jinyu raised her head with hatred, and the moment she hurriedly stepped through the threshold, she saw Liu Qing sitting quietly on the seat.

There are more than a dozen men, women, children, and servants in the room.

However, Jinyu could accurately find Liu Qing's figure with just one glance.

It seems that there is only room for Liu Qing in Jinyu's eyes in the whole world.The rest can't be seen, can't be seen.

Jinyu suddenly realized: So... I value Liu Qing to such an extent.

Jinyu smiled wryly.

Dry and forbearing unrequited love.Absolutely impossible to have reciprocal feelings.

Either way, Jinyu didn't dare to look forward to it, and couldn't look forward to it.

Because just thinking about it makes my heart ache, but I fell into it willingly.

not like someone...

Jinyu rejected Liu Li who suddenly appeared in his mind, shook his head, and tried hard to drive away Liu Li with a smirk on his face, but never thought that when he looked up at Liu Qing again, Liu Li had already rushed in without saying hello. into his field of vision.

Liu Li didn't look at Jin Yu, not even a glance.

In the bustling front hall, Liu Li silently walked around the crowd, walked behind Liu Qing, stopped casually, stood still, and looked down at Liu Qing.

Liu Qing's expression was still calm, but Jinyu could see that he was a little unhappy.

Could it be that he is still thinking about the scene in Liu Li's room just now?

Jinyu didn't dare to look forward to it, and couldn't help but look forward to it.But I don't know what to expect.

Liu Li was dressed luxuriously and stood behind Liu Qing, with the folding fan in his hand twirling around, playing with his fingers.Although he still smiled so ruffantly, but in front of his own face, Liu Li was obviously very cautious in front of Liu Qing.

Liu Qing wore a light green long gown and sat at the table drinking tea in silence, not looking sideways at Liu Li's playful smile.

Jinyu secretly called out "Yes" in her heart!

The world really is one thing and one thing.

Liu Li, the overlord of the world, is sometimes afraid.

Jinyu's heart suddenly felt happy.

It turns out that this guy is not afraid of the sky or the earth, but Liu Qing is the one he is afraid of!

No wonder he was so afraid of getting close to Liu Qing.It turned out that he was afraid that one day, he would pretend to be a tiger and take revenge on his past insults.

Jin Yu secretly laughed at Liu Li in her heart: the heart of a villain is the heart of a gentleman.

If there is such a day...

Liu Qing told herself...

That's all.

Jinyu sighed and shook his head helplessly.

If there is a day when the two are happy, even if Jinyu has to sacrifice his life for it, he still thinks...it's worth it!

Mr. Liu's face was full of red today, and he was very happy. Seeing that everyone finally arrived, he hurriedly waved his hands and asked his family members to take their seats and prepare for the banquet.

Liu Qing was already sitting on the seat. Hearing the words, he didn't know why. He looked away from Liu Li to look at him, and smiled slightly at Jin Yu who was standing alone by the door, "Come here." His slender fingers patted Take a picture of the position next to you.

At that moment, Jinyu's heart suddenly felt like a night of spring breeze, thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloomed, as if he had been bewitched, he secretly smiled stupidly and shyly, and bowed his head towards Liu Qing.

At the same time, Liu Li squinted at Jinyu and snorted coldly, pulled back his clothes, took the lead and sat down on the round stool on the other side of Jinyu, looked at Jinyu from a distance, and rolled his eyes.

Jinyu's meal was in dire straits.

Whatever dish he wants to pick up, Liu Li must pick it up first.After putting it in his mouth, he kept making faces at himself.

Looking at him, Jinyu lost his appetite, and couldn't eat any food, so he couldn't eat even more.Since the whole family was present, it was hard to say anything, so I had to lower my head to pick up the rice, hoping to finish eating quickly.Feeling wronged in my heart, I can only suffocate in my stomach.

All of a sudden, there was something green and chopsticks in the bowl.

Jinyu was taken aback, and found that it was a few string beans, with minced chicken still stained on them, shiny with oil, and looked delicious.Jinyu swallowed, and looked up to see who was serving her food.

After looking at it, my nose suddenly became sore, and I was so moved that I wanted to cry.

Liu Qing, who was sitting on his left, said with a smile, "Why don't you eat rice, what do you like to eat?" As he spoke, he took another chopstick of rape flower and put it into Jinyu's wrist.

"Hmm..." Jin Yu nodded vigorously and gave him a foolish smile. Just as she was about to lower her head to eat the food in the bowl, she suddenly realized that Liu Li had snatched the whole bowl away.

"What kind of vegetarian food? I'm already skinny enough, my waist looks like meat, I'm sick. I eat meat. Hey! Eat chicken!"

While speaking, Liu Li drove all the vegetables that Liu Qing had just picked up in Jinyu's bowl into his own bowl, then stretched out his chopsticks and picked up a chicken thigh on the table, put it in Jinyu's bowl, and then returned the bowl to him. he.

"Eat!" Liu Li looked down at Jinyu condescendingly, saying, "If you don't dare to eat, I'll take care of you later!" ' expression.

Jin Yu didn't like to eat this, and she didn't dare to take it out. She looked at the chicken thighs in the bowl with her mouth pouted, and then reluctantly looked at the vegetables in Liu Li's bowl, and finally turned her head to look at Liu Qing on the left. .

"Feel sorry."

Liu Qing's face changed slightly, and he looked at Jinyu, but he was still gentle, "It's okay. It's not your fault. Since he gave it to you, you can eat it."

Liu Qing called for food.Even if Jinyu eats shit, it still smells delicious.Immediately, I felt that the chicken in the bowl was not as annoying as before, it was delicious and very attractive.

Jinyu was frightened and frightened by Liu Lilian, and she tossed and tossed all morning, already hungry.Now that Liu Qing spoke, he felt relieved and started to stutter.

"Tut tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk!" Liu Li, who was sitting on Jinyu's right hand, looked at Jinyu with a look of disgust, and then leaned closer to Jinyu's ear, and said in a voice that only two people could hear. Said, "See how I take you in at night! Little fairy!"

Hearing this, Jin Yu, who was holding a piece of chicken in his mouth, swallowed it all in one gulp, stuck it in his throat, choked, and suddenly burst into tears, beat his chest and covered his mouth, and suppressed his cough.

Liu Qing watched from the left, frowning.Gently patting Jinyu's back with his palm, he called the servant girl to pour tea, brought it himself, and handed it to Jinyu to drink.

Liu Li watched from the side with a smile, not to mention how happy he was.

Member Liu couldn't stand it any longer, pointed at Liu Li and said, "It's outrageous! Is there someone who bullies you like this? He is half your brother anyway. Where have you learned etiquette?" He said to Liu Qing , "After your mother and I left, you will be in charge of the family. You are the eldest son, so pay more attention to this little bastard. Your aunt has only one child, Jinyu, and she wants to take care of him as her own brother."

"Master..." Liu Yingying was so touched that she wiped her tears when she heard this.

Li Yuanwai said a few words of relief.At this time, Jinyu no longer coughed.The red face is very charming.Liu Qing's hand stroking his back came to Jinyu's face at some point, stroked it lightly a few times, and helped him wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Jinyu watched Liu Qing lost his mind, until Liu Yingying's words brought him back to reality completely.

"Jinyu, why are you wearing Liu Li's clothes? Where are your clothes?"

In just a moment, Jinyu, who was bathed in the spring breeze, suddenly seemed to be soaked in ice water all over her body. She was so cold that she couldn't even speak, and she was so nervous that she stuttered.

"I...I..." Jinyu couldn't help looking at Liu Qing on the left as if asking for help.It's a pity that Liu Qing also looked puzzled. Hearing this, he also looked Jinyu up and down.

uh...it's over...

Liu Qing...please don't hate me...

Jinyu was so scared that she looked like a frightening little animal, staring at her big wet eyes, timidly looking at the family members around her, but she didn't dare to take another look at Liu Qing on the left.

Even if you don't look at it, your mind is full of imagination - Liu Qing's contemptuous eyes.

"Mother... I... Woo... Liu Li..." He did that to me...

Jinyu couldn't speak, her eyes were red with anxiety.

When Liu Yingying saw it, she became even more anxious, thinking that her son was being bullied again.But his position in this family is already very embarrassing, how much can he say for his son?

Liu Yingying could only say with tears in her eyes, "During the time when mother is not at home, you have to get along well with your elder brother and younger brother, and don't make them angry, you understand?"

Jinyu is a sensible child, so he naturally understands his mother's heart.Hearing this, she clenched her lower lip, nodded heavily, and blocked the tears in her eyes under her drooping head.

"Baby understands. I will definitely not make my elder brother angry. I will also give way to my younger brother."

Liu Li "hehe..." laughed, and leaned closer to Jinyu, "You said this, don't go back on your word."

Jinyu lowered her head, knowing what he meant, but she didn't dare to say it, for fear that her mother who was about to leave would be worried, so she nodded again, with a look of swallowing her anger.

Yuanwai Liu instructed Liu Qing again, to the effect that Liu Qing should take good care of Liu Li, and before the adults in the family came back, he had already torn Jinyu's bones.

"Yes, Dad. My son understands." Liu Qing was very patient, listening and answering without any sign of impatience.

After drinking and eating, the servants were busy for a while.Mr. Liu explained some details of Liu Qing's business, and drove away from Yangzhou with his two wives and dozens of servants.

The three Liu family brothers bid farewell to their parents on horseback, and followed the carriage all the way to the thousand-year-old banyan tree outside Yangzhou city.

When the sun was setting, Jinyu watched the carriage team disappear at the end of the world, and her heart gradually sank to the bottom.

tonight……

How can I live?

Suddenly, the wind picked up.

Jinyu couldn't help but look at the thousand-year-old banyan beside the road.

The trunk is thick, and the branches hang down to the ground, connecting into roots, and a tree forms a forest.The leaves are green and rustling.

In the past, whenever Jinyu had troubles, he liked to ride here alone, and confide in the small tree hole that grew just one person tall.The mood will suddenly become brighter.

Now that he is entangled by Liu Li, it is more terrifying than house arrest, so there is no chance for him to travel alone.

Thinking about it, Jinyu couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Liu Qing rode his horse and walked ahead. Hearing Jinyu's sigh, he looked back and asked:

"You look sad, do you have something on your mind?"

Jinyu looked at his light green hair ribbon fluttering in the wind, and his posture on horseback was both noble and elegant.How can such an extraordinary and refined person be able to climb up to such a filthy height?

Jinyu immediately felt inferior.Shaking his head, he smiled wryly at Liu Qing.

Liu Li, who was walking behind Liu Qing on horseback, also turned his head at the same time, winking at Jinyu, hinting at the night's agreement.

With a pain in his heart, Jinyu tightened the reins and stopped the horse.

"Liu Qing."

"Ok?"

"You go back first. I want to be alone for a while and go back later."

Liu Qing looked at him for a moment, "Forget it. When you come back, come find me in the study. Let's reconcile the accounts. It may take until evening. If you have something to do, go and do it first."

When Jinyu heard this, she was immediately overjoyed, and then looked at Liu Li. The guy's face was half collapsed, and it was as dark as a June day when it was about to rain.

Jinyu dismounted from the horse, and took the horse for a walk on the grass.After Liu Qing and Liu Li walked away for a long time, Jinyu dropped the reins, let the horse graze, went straight to the side of the ancient banyan tree that was away from the official road, and quickly found the small tree hole that was one person tall, dug it open The dead leaves and grass that were stuffed in last time whispered something in my heart.

"I like Liu Qing. I like it very much..."

'Boom!' A teacup shattered on the floor.

Cui Cui, who was cleaning the vase in the study, hurried towards Liu Qing.

"Master!"

"It's okay, my hand slipped a bit."

"Are you not injured?" Cuicui knelt down at Liu Qing's feet, took out her handkerchief, and went to help Liu Qing wipe the wet hem of her clothes.

"No...not in the way..." Liu Qing's tone was quite different from usual. It was neither cold nor calm, and sounded a little flustered.It caused Cui Cui, who was kneeling on the ground, to look up.

At first glance, he was shocked.

"Eldest young master, are you alright? Is it burning? Why is your face so red?" He hurriedly shouted to the door, "Come on, call the doctor!"

At this time, Jin Yu, who was far outside the city, was still lying on the outside of the tree hole, vomiting bitterness inside.

"Liu Li is the most annoying! He is a big bastard!"

"Yo, I heard someone talking bad about me from afar. Who is so bold?"

Jinyu was startled, and turned around abruptly.

There was a 'slap' on both sides of the head, and a pair of hands were stretched out, propped on the tree trunk, trapping himself in it, and had to face the lingering Liu Li in front of him.

"What are you talking about me? Huh? I think you are tired of work, and you can't wait until night."

Liu Li pressed Jinyu between himself and the tree trunk, looking down, his eyes were filled with 'discomfort'.

When Jinyu saw him, she wanted to run away. While trying to get out from under his arm propped on the tree trunk, she said, "Didn't you go back? Why are you still here?"

Liu Li put his arms around Jinyu's waist, cut off Jinyu's thoughts of running away, and approached with his head, forcing Jinyu to stick his whole body against the tree trunk without struggling.

"Master, I can leave whenever I want, and come back when I want. When is your turn to order me?"

Jinyu said: "Then you...you can't eavesdrop on me either!"

Liu Li smiled: "You speak so loudly yourself, are you afraid that others won't hear you?"

Jinyu's face was embarrassed immediately, thinking that he was only paying attention to venting his anger just now, so he didn't pay attention to the loudness of his voice.

Liu Li snorted a few times, his handsome face looked full of evil at the moment, "What did you say bad about me just now? Huh? Big bastard? Why didn't you talk? You're scolding me in front of me!"

Jin Yu's face was pinched by Liu Li, tears flowed from the pain, but she still had the appearance of 'not opening her mouth to death'.

After Liu Li pulled his cheek until it was red, he let go of his hand and stroked the pinched skin, as if smoothing crumpled silk.The tone of whispering in the ear, at first hearing, I thought it was a lover talking about himself.

"It's a pity that I lied to you in front of my aunt just now. You said you were wearing my clothes because you knocked over the inkstone when you were writing in my room."

Surprised, Jinyu raised her eyes to look at Liu Li.But Liu Li looked away at the same moment, "If I knew that you would turn your back and speak ill of me, I might as well tell her the truth. You slapped me twice this morning. I haven't settled the debt with you yet." Woolen cloth."

Jinyu never expected that Liu Li would help her hide it, she was a little embarrassed at once, but she couldn't help herself, her eyes wandered back and forth, looking at the faint green grass at her feet, "I don't want to hit you either... You... do that kind of thing..."

When Jinyu said this, she bit her tongue, unable to speak any more, her ears blushed with embarrassment.

Liu Li moved his body away calmly, "Go back. Liu Qing is still waiting for you."

Jinyu was a little surprised by his different behavior from the past.

I thought: Why is he so talkative today?

But still didn't want to leave, turned around, faced the tree trunk, and said to Liu Li, "You go back first. I still have some things..."

In the middle of speaking, Jinyu looked up at the tree trunk, only to see Liu Li's hand blocking the tree hole.

Jinyu felt strange, and was about to turn around to ask, but Liu Li stretched his face to Jinyu's neck first, and whispered in Jinyu's ear in an extremely eerie tone, "You don't want to come with me, don't you wait for me?" Do you still want to talk about this tree hole now?"

Jinyu was guessed by him, so he bowed his head and remained silent.

Liu Lidao, "This tree has been here for at least thousands of years. There have been several dynasties in the world, and many emperors have died, but it hasn't withered yet..."

"Trees live longer than people!" Jinyu liked this tree, and didn't want to see Liu Li say that about it, so he quickly snatched it up.

Liu Li smiled strangely. His eyes, which were originally full of heroic spirit, were now full of radiance and evil charm.

"But when I was a child, I heard from an old servant at home that there was a white vixen living in this tree. If anyone liked it, she would become a beauty, find her, and do the husband and wife thing. When someone likes it, it can suck it. Take away the three souls and six souls of that person for cultivation. Those who can be sucked away by it will only be left with a walking corpse; or become a living dead who will never wake up. You always say to the talking tree hole Maybe it's the old den of the fox spirit. Are you afraid that it will find you after hearing too much?"

Jinyu heard the words, her big bright eyes gradually gave birth to a dazzling brilliance, and for a moment she forgot that she had a grudge with Liu Li, and asked curiously, "Is there really a vixen? I thought it was made up by the storyteller in the teahouse .Is it in there? Let me see."

After Jinyu finished speaking, she rushed towards the tree hole.Liu Li quickly took the first step to block the tree trunk with his body.

"No, no, no... I also heard from others!"

When Jinyu heard this, her shoulders slumped, "It's boring."

Liu Li raised his eyebrows, and said loudly, "Maybe it's true! The servants at home, who dares to lie to this young master? Are you tired of work?!"

Jinyu frowned and thought for a while, "Then who is the old servant who told you this? Are you still at home?"

Liu Li looked away and muttered, "Dead."

"That must be your nonsense. There is no evidence for death." Jinyu's expression was full of 'disbelief', his eyes rolled wide, and he joked, "Could it be that if you say it, you will be killed by a vixen? Hehe, then you have to be careful Yes. According to what you said, this tree hole might still be someone’s lair.”

Liu Li was extremely stubborn today, insisting on fighting for victory, "Then the servant who told me is old and dead! I'm not the only one who said it! You go to Yangzhou City to inquire about it. How many people know about this legend? Gotta go."

Hearing this, Jinyu became interested again, ran over and pulled Liu Li, "Get out of the way, I want to see if there is a fox in here. Is it white?"

Liu Li couldn't move, "Don't...don't look! Liu Qing is still waiting for you at home!!"

The two quarreled for a while, and gradually became a little sleepy.The strange thing is that Liu Li is not as hateful as usual, he is stupid and stupid blocking the tree hole, like a tombstone.

Jinyu was tired, panting, "It's as heavy as a pig! You can't even push it!"

Liu immediately yelled like a furry animal, "You are like a pig! You have thin skin and tender meat without hair!"

"You..." Jin Yu wanted to reply, but suddenly thought of something, she blushed instantly, coughed twice, and changed the subject, "That vixen, will she really become a beauty?"

"Hmm. I heard that's the case." Liu Li answered absent-mindedly, not looking at Jinyu.

Jinyu asked again, "How beautiful? Prettier than Liu Qing?"

"Of course!" Liu Li smiled triumphantly.

Jinyu lowered her head and rested her chin, and said to herself, "Then I don't like it either...I only like Liu Qing!"

Liu Li suddenly yelled, "Let's go! What nonsense! Your beloved Liu Qing is still at home waiting for you to go back and settle accounts!"

"Huh?" Jinyu didn't understand why Liu Li was suddenly angry, and his arm hurt, but Liu Li had already roughly dragged him away.

Take a second look...

The ancient banyan tree is green and green, and the wind is blowing.The green leaves are rustling, one after another.Flying down the hillside, falling into the emerald green grass, blending into one color.

The tree hole is getting farther and farther away, until it can't be seen clearly, and it can't be found anymore.

Liu Li's impatient voice came from the front.

"What are you looking at! Hurry up and leave! Liu Qing should wait!"

"Here it comes, hurry up!"

"I'm just urging my life, what can you do to me?!"

Jin Yu looked away with a smile, rode his horse and ran a few steps, caught up with Liu Li, and rode towards the majestic Yangzhou City Gate not far away.

Liu House.

In the study room, the oily light shone slightly.There are two desks, and the two sons are at the desk to check the accounts.

The sound of the abacus 'tick', the reflection of the brush on the wall, shaking faintly.

Jinyu is writing, while Liu Qing is calculating.They don't talk to each other.

Liu Qing closed a long and thick account book, got up and walked to Jinyu's seat.When he came to him, he put it on Jinyu's desk, approached the candlestick, and leaned over to look at the bill Jinyu was writing.

Jinyu was copying the pen, concentrating on it, and writing quickly. She didn't notice Liu Qing approaching, and thought it was the servant holding the lamp.Until Liu Qing stretched out his finger, pointed to a flaw in the account, and said gently, "This is wrong."

Jinyu was startled, "Brother!" She stood up abruptly from the seat, holding on to the pen, it doesn't matter if she doesn't let it go, it's strange if she doesn't let it go.

Liu Qing glanced at him, patted him on the shoulder, and said in relief, "It's okay. It's just a small mistake. Just correct it."

"Hmm." The two were so close that Jin Yu didn't dare to look at Liu Qing, she tilted her head, lowered her brows and eyes, and answered vaguely.

Liu Qing smiled and said, "Look at the floor again? Are there ants in the study to count?"

"I... um... no... no..." Jin Yu looked up at him in a panic, then immediately looked away, blushing.

Liu Qing sighed slightly, left Jinyu, and walked to her desk.

"Why do you always look dejected when you face me? You can talk and laugh when you face Liu Li."

Jinyu raised her head suddenly, rushed forward in a hurry, took a step behind Liu Qing, and stopped suddenly, her face flushed red, "Who was talking and laughing with him! That bastard..." Halfway through speaking, thinking about Liu Li It was Liu Qing's own younger brother, who suddenly stopped talking, calmed down a little, and said just now, "I...I am a little afraid of you...but...but I am...Liu Qing...I treat you..."

'Boom, boom, boom! When Jinyu was so nervous that he almost jumped out, there was a knock on the door outside the study.

Liu Qing turned his back to Jinyu and looked at the door, "What's the matter?"

The servant said outside the door: "Eldest Young Master, Third Young Master asked the younger one to pick up Second Young Master and go back to the house."

Jinyu's heart sank suddenly, and all his muscles tensed at the same time.

Liu Li, he will never let me go...

Jinyu almost resigned to her fate!Liu Qing's cold voice came from beside his ear.

"We still have some things to do. You go back first."

"Yes." There were distant footsteps outside the door.

Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief, not wanting to be overheard by Liu Qing who was about to turn around, "Recently, you often sigh. What's on your mind, can't you tell me?"

Jinyu smiled wryly, and shook her head feebly, "I don't need to bother you about my little things. But you, who have always been weak, must not stay up late. We finish it quickly, so you can go to rest earlier."

Liu Qing's eyes moved slightly, the red candle dripping tears on the desk, and the provocative oily light made Liu Qing's originally desolate eyes look a little pitiful at this moment.If you think about it again, it's gone again. It seems that everything just now was caused by Jin Yu's ghost.

"Are you leaving in such a hurry? You don't want to stay with me. Or are you and Liu Li hiding something from me that you don't want me to know?"

Jinyu was startled, and sighed to herself, "How did I end up in this situation. Sigh... Liu Qing, I..."

Liu Qing looked at him with curiosity and hope in his eyes, as well as something that Jinyu couldn't understand.

Jinyu's throat choked up, she couldn't speak a thousand words.

Looking up at the double shadowed ceiling, Jin Yu held back the tears that were about to come out of her eyes, "Liu Qing, I treat you differently from Liu Li."

Three shifts.

The study room is still brightly lit.

After that conversation, they didn't have any more conversations with each other, and they turned to official business again, and they were busy respectively.

Liu Qing was a little dissatisfied, pointing to a bunch of mistakes and omissions, and asked Jinyu, "Why do you keep making mistakes? I have reminded you just now."

"Sorry. I'm done again." Jinyu lowered her head, her cheeks were in the shadows, and she couldn't see any expression.

'Boom, boom, boom! 'There was another knock on the door outside the house.

"Who?" Liu Qing frowned and asked.

The voice of the servant who came just now came from outside the door, "Eldest Young Master, Third Young Master said that it is late at night, and asked the younger one to remind you to go back and rest."

Liu Qing said, "I see."

The people outside the door did not move, nor did they hear the sound of leaving footsteps.

Liu Qing frowned even tighter, "What else do you need?"

The boy outside the door said, "The third young master also ordered the young one to pick up the second young master."

Jinyu was in the house, and upon hearing this, the brush in her hand 'ticked' and dropped a drop of ink, staining the account book.Jinyu was afraid that Liu Qing would scold him again, so she hurriedly raised her hand to find something to wipe, but in a panic, she knocked over the teacup on the desk.

Immediately, there was a mess of 'dingling jingling' on the desk.

Jinyu tidied up the important items on the table in a hurry, picked up the teacup, held a stack of account books in her arms, but the sleeves were still stained with ink, suddenly met Liu Qing's gaze, paused for a while, and moved Look away and continue to get busy.

Liu Qing slammed, and threw an account book in his hand on the table, his voice sounded a little impatient, "Go back and tell Liu Li that if he is sleepy, he should go to bed first. When we are done with our work If he is really worried, I will personally send Jinyu back later, is that all right?"

"This..." The boy hesitated, not knowing how to reply.But I was afraid that there were young masters at both ends, and I couldn't afford to offend either of them, so I had to obediently go back and return to my life.

Jinyu put down everything and walked towards Liu Qing.

In the oily light, the back of Liu Qing's jade tree facing the wind seems real and unreal.

Jinyu didn't know what to think, and suddenly borrowed courage from the sky, and reached out to caress Liu Qing's back.Beautiful curves, as soon as you put them on, you will be greedy for them.Through the thin casual clothes, Liu Qing's flexible back texture, cool body temperature, and tall and lean figure are all like poppies, tempting Jinyu to fall into it, unable to extricate himself.

Liu Qing didn't dodge, but turned his head slightly, as if looking back at Jinyu, but also looking away.

"Jinyu, do you have something to say to me?"

Jinyu suffocated for breath, her heart ached unbearably, she suddenly stretched out her arms, and gently hugged Liu Qing from behind.

Since Liu Qing was a few inches taller than Jinyu, Jinyu hugged him, her cheeks could only be buried on Liu Qing's shoulder.

The strange thing is that Liu Qing still looked indifferent, neither breaking away from his embrace, nor asking any questions.Not even the slightest startled reaction from the body.

Jinyu's heart was beating like a drum.The atrium constricted so badly that Jinyu had to laugh at herself in order to soothe her tense mind.

"Liu Qing, you seem to have lost weight again."

"That's because you haven't hugged me for a long time." Liu Qing smiled faintly, "I remember when I was young, you liked to cling to me very much, but when you grow up, you become more and more indifferent."

"I..." Jinyu bit her lips tightly.That taboo word can never be uttered.

Liu Qingdao: "In the end, I got closer to Liu Li. The two of them are together every day, talking and laughing."

Jinyu's fingers gradually clenched the clothes on Liu Qing's body, and her eyes became determined, "Liu Qing, I want to tell you something. In fact, I have been to you..."

'Boom, boom, boom! ' The door was knocked again, very unfortunately.

Liu Qing asked, "Who is it?"

The boy outside the door said, "It's still the young one. The third young master told the young one to pick up the second young master this time."

Liu Qing said angrily, "Go back and tell Liu Li, just tell me what I said. It's too late tonight, and Jinyu has already slept with me. Don't worry about it. If you make trouble again, I think he's making a mistake again. !"

Jinyu's whole body was shaken, joy was born in his heart, he lost his mind for a moment, lying on Liu Qing's shoulder, and smiled a sweet smile that was overwhelming, but he didn't realize it at all.Until Liu Qing turned around and touched the two strands of hair beside Jinyu's cheeks, his eyes were full of tenderness that Jinyu had never seen before.

"I've always loved your looks very much. Especially when you smile, it's as sweet as honey, and it's three points more beautiful than the sun."

Jinyu closed her eyes obediently, allowing Liu Qing's cool fingers to follow the contours of her face wantonly.The seemingly absent touch, the ambiguous touch to the extreme, is like sweet and intoxicating wine, which makes people's heart feel itchy, and their bones are completely soaked and soft.

The waterside pavilion where Liu Qing lives is not as gorgeously decorated as Liu Li's bedroom, and the layout is very simple.The home furnishings are all made of wood and look antique.

Jinyu was lying on Liu Qing's vanilla-smelling big bed, her thin body was under the thin white quilt, outlining an exquisite curve like a winding mountain.The blue duck tent above the head, and the light green gauze in the inner and outer rooms of the partition, danced enchantingly in the night wind on the lake.

Through the light veil and thin curtain, Liu Qing standing quietly in front of the window under the moon is like a long-ago painting.

Jinyu was so obsessed that she couldn't take her eyes off, she was intoxicated with the present moment, and didn't want to see tomorrow.

Liu Qing pulled down the bamboo curtains pendant on the carved window lattice one by one, and walked towards the bed where Jinyu was lying.While pacing, the hem of his light blue nightgown was gently blown by the wind.Jinyu looked at it and felt that he seemed to be walking on clouds.

For him, Liu Qing is so otherworldly and untouchable.The more I think about it, the more I feel inferior, and the more precious I feel this night.

While thinking about it, Liu Qing had already lifted a corner of the quilt and lay down beside Jinyu.

Face to face, hair tied, breath communion.The distance between each other is so small that you can feel the temperature from each other's body.Liu Qing's unique aura rushed towards his face.

Jinyu felt as if she was suddenly in the forest in the morning. The air was fresh and the soil was fragrant, and her mood improved accordingly.

"Liu Qing."

"Ok?"

"You smell so good..."

"Hehe...do you like it?"

"Um……"

Jinyu nodded, her eyelids drooping.

Wasn't sleepy just now?

But he became extremely courageous, and he took the initiative to arch his body towards the place where Liu Qing was lying.His face was hot, his head was dull, like sleepiness, and fever.

Liu Qing smiled dotingly. Seeing Jinyu approaching, she hugged him in her arms, stroked her back with one hand, and propped up half of her body with the other. Lying on her side, she lightly wiped Jinyu's face with her fingers.

"Why are you being so coquettish today?"

Jinyu gradually couldn't see Liu Qing's appearance clearly, feeling anxious like ants on a hot pot, trying to widen her hazy eyes, what she saw
