Ambush from all sides
Chapter 10
If someone can ask some words from the mouth of the dead leaf, for example-which season do you like-he will know that relatively speaking, the dead leaf prefers autumn and winter, but hates spring and summer.
There are too many flowers in spring, and the pollen often chokes the nose; it is too hot in summer, and the scars on the face and body will itch.
If someone had asked, Dead Leaf might have said, but he had never been asked such insignificant questions.Only a long time ago, more than ten years ago, his elder brother Cen Li once asked this question.Ask if there are any mosquito bites when you go to bed at night, and ask if it is cold in winter, do you want to wear an extra layer of clothes.
Life at that time was very happy, even considered carefree, and I never had to worry about what would happen tomorrow.Until the eldest brother died, the dream also woke up.
It was also at that time that Dead Leaf began to understand that others would not ask him such questions.What they care about is their own food and clothing, their own emotions.After entering the rivers and lakes, at a young age, he quickly learned to be silent, reticent and expressionless.It's not that I don't want to say something, but that no one will listen to it, so I don't say it, and no one wants to know anyway.
Year after year passed like this, gradually becoming a cold and numb person.
In the afternoon, the water vapor in the air of Changzhou Prefecture gradually condensed, accompanied by the rising heat since the beginning of summer, which made the dead leaves feel upset.It is estimated that it will rain again tonight, and the sweltering heat before the rain is the most uncomfortable. There is a tingling itch like insects and ants gnawing at the place where the scar is connected to the skin, which makes people want to reach out and pick at it.But the itchy area was covered under the scar, so the dead leaves would feel upset at this time, and the aura around the whole body was extremely low.
At dinner in the evening, when Yu Ke came over to serve the dishes, she gave him a hard look for some reason, and Dead Leaf felt puzzled, so she raised her head and glanced at her, which actually made the little girl turn pale with fright.Zhan Hao saw Yu Ke put away the bowls and chopsticks in fear and anger, and then ran out like flying.In a blink of an eye, I saw half of the dead leaf's face that was so black, I couldn't help but feel funny.
"Who messed with you again? Look at your stinky face." Zhan Hao said slowly, while reaching out to pick up a chopstick to pick up cabbage.Withered Ye picked up the chopsticks and said in a low and perfunctory voice, "It's okay." While speaking, he turned his face away and rubbed on his shoulder impatiently, and a small grunt came out of his throat.
While chewing vegetables, Zhan Hao looked at his mask-covered left face, looking absent-minded.After a while, Dead Leaf's already frowning brow tightened a bit, he put down his chopsticks, reached out and rubbed the left side of his face vigorously through the leather mask, his expression was gritted.Zhan Hao laughed softly, and said slowly: "If you feel itchy, just take it off, it's really uncomfortable to wear."
Withered Ye raised her head and glared at him rather depressedly, muttering in a low voice: "...I won't take it."
Zhan Hao laughed again: "Do you think that scar is ugly?"
Dead Leaf glared at him again, but ignored him this time.Zhan Hao raised his eyebrows meaningfully, put down his chopsticks, and reached into his sleeves to dig in and out.Dead Leaf stared suspiciously at his movements, and after a while, saw him take out a small cork bottle from inside.
With a smile in his eyes, Zhan Hao reached out and handed him the bottle.Withered Ye frowned and looked at it for a long while, but didn't move her hands.He stared at Zhan Hao's smiling face, and asked suspiciously: "What is this?" Zhan Hao tilted his head helplessly, and said, "The scar removal medicine I applied to you before has the effect of relieving itching and promoting muscle growth."
Dead Leaf's face became stinky when he heard it, and he gave him a furious look, then turned his face and ate bitterly: "I don't need this!"
Zhan Hao narrowed his eyes amusedly, and if he looked carefully, he could still see a look of pampering and indulgence.He stretched out his hand and stuffed the ointment into the skirt of the dead leaf without any explanation, and said, "You just take it, and seeing how upset you are, don't scare my little maid." After finishing speaking, he curled his lips , started to eat leisurely, and made the dead leaves angry, neither was it rejection nor was it.This reason really... hit him right in the door.
I was depressed for a while, and finally I had to accept it aggrieved.Thinking of the sticky touch on her face before, Dead Leaf silently felt that she was even more upset.
Now that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, it's starting to be a headache to sleep at night.The little mandarin duck is a long-haired cat that sheds its hair in spring and summer, and its hair is covered with dead leaves all over its clothes and pants.Sometimes cats get tired of him, and with a flick of their tail, a few cat hairs will fly lightly onto his face.Now that the kitten is born, I don’t take good care of it. Every night, I still have to crawl to the pillow and sleep next to his ear.Sometimes when I wake up in the middle of the night, the left half of my neck is covered with fine beads of sweat and a few wet cat hairs.
Dead Leaf is angry and angry, but he can't do anything with a cat, so the little mandarin duck is content to make progress.
"Tonight, you have to stay in the nest honestly, understand?!"
Withered Ye sat by the bed, holding the little mandarin duck's head and cursing at it.The cat squatted on his crossed legs, opened a pair of round eyes of different colors, and looked at the dead leaves with a half-understanding face. After a long while, it made a "meow", turned around and pointed its butt at him.Withered Leaf was so anxious that she couldn't help but picked up the cat and threw it to the ground ruthlessly.The cat landed nimbly and lightly, wagging its tail gracefully, turned around and glanced at the exasperated dead leaf triumphantly.
Dead Leaf gritted her teeth, but she had no choice but to put down the bed curtain that had been hanging all along.Just as she was about to lie down depressed, there was a soft knock on the door.Withered Ye was faintly startled—he didn't hear this person's footsteps or breath just now!Just as he drew his knife vigilantly and was about to turn over and get out of bed, Zhan Hao's deep and unhurried voice sounded from outside: "Bie Cen, are you asleep?"
The dead leaf's movements stopped for an instant, and then felt a sense of powerless discouragement.Recently, he has been feeling this way all the time, the energy he is holding back all over his body can't be realized, and he always hits the soft cotton.Zhan Hao is smiling all day long, and always does some inexplicable things, such as picking him up, helping him see a doctor, and now getting him some scar-removing medicine.
I really have nothing to do.Dead Leaf cursed secretly, put on her coat and went to open the door for him.Zhan Hao heard his footsteps outside, with a faint smile on his face.After a while, there was a sound of pulling the door latch inside, and the two doors opened with a "huh", revealing Dead Leaf's sulky face.
No mask.
Zhan Hao narrowed his eyes, his left eyebrow raised faintly.Dead Leaf stared at him with a stinky face, and said, "What are you doing?"
"Ah," Zhan Hao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his fingers were trying to hide his emotions, he stroked his eyebrows slowly, and after a while a faint smile appeared on his face, "I can't sleep, so I came to chat with you. "
The dead leaves were angry, and he wanted to close the door with his hand, but Zhan Hao walked in with a short body like a ghost.Dead Leaf was stunned, then blew up, slammed the door and scolded him angrily: "Zhan Hao, what kind of crazy are you in the middle of the night! If you can't sleep, go find someone else, I'm sleepy!"
Zhan Hao smiled and stood by the table with his back turned to him, stretched out his hand to put something on the table, and said slowly: "Hey, don't be angry, it's still early, just after Xu, what are you in a hurry for?" He turned around and smiled at him with a jar in his hand: "Why don't we have a drink?"
Withered Leaf gritted her teeth and stared at him, but the other party was still smiling—it was such a face again!As the saying goes, you don't reach out to hit a smiling person, but now Dead Leaf feels that she is going to be beaten to death by this smiling person!After coming to Zhan's house for more than a month, which day will he not show off his spirits twice?Unexpectedly, he still smiled in a gentle and elegant manner, which made people's teeth itch but he couldn't help it. It was true that the dead could be suffocated by him.
Seeing that his hair was still blown, Zhan Hao knew that he was unwilling to accept this proposal, so he put down the wine first with a sigh, then turned around and walked towards the cat's nest.As soon as he walked away, something on the table was revealed.Withered Ye frowned and took a closer look, and saw that it was a pot of orange flowers.The branches of this flower are slender, and the leaves are thin and thin, not as big as the petals.The entire flower disc is similar to a fist, six fat petals are rolled out, and many stamens spit out tremblingly from inside.
"What is this?" Withered Leaf frowned, reaching out to touch the fat petals.
Zhan Hao stretched out his hand to hug Xiaojiaoer, and said while stroking it, "This is the volumetric pill, it's for you."
"Why did you give me the flowers?" After hearing this, Dead Leaf couldn't help feeling a bit annoyed while being puzzled.He thought to himself, why is Zhan Hao getting more and more obsessed?It's fine to leave this troublesome cat with him, why send potted flowers over again?
Zhan Hao walked slowly to the table and sat down, took out a glass and poured some wine, took a sip relished, and said, "I think it looks good, so I'll give it to you."
Think it looks good?What is the reason!Withered Ye frowned and stared at him, then turned her face to stare at the flower, feeling more and more disturbed.The little Jiaoer over there was woken up by Zhan Hao, he grabbed his clothes with his little paws and groaned twice.Zhan Hao hugged it and smiled, and even stretched out his hand to poke its belly, saying, "Little Jiaoer, I haven't gained weight in a few days, it's growing so fast."
Seeing his uneventful movements, Dead Leaf reached out with a dark face and snatched the cat.Zhan Hao raised his head to look at him in surprise, and saw Dead Ye rolled his eyes at him, then carefully massaged the cat's stomach with his fingers: "Don't mess with the cat's stomach, I just drank milk, it's time to spit it out soon. "Zhan Hao looked at his skillful and natural movements with raised eyebrows, feeling a little strange in his heart-what's the matter with this appearance of a good wife and mother?Seeing Xiao Jiaoer look like his daughter, this is so precious.
After thinking about it, Zhan Hao smiled.Dead Leaf looked up at him, ignored him, and continued rubbing the little guy's belly.Zhan Hao looked at the person and the cat leisurely, took a sip of wine for a while, looked at the misty moon in the sky outside, which looked like a circle of hair, and said unhurriedly: "The people under my command just now have letters. My son is here, saying that there is a new little girl named Wanyue in Yuehua Building, who changes the incense in the building every day, she looks pretty pretty, and in the middle of the night, she changed into red clothes and ran to the Yuguan Tower of the Yan family... ...Is it the one from Shadow Gate who reported to you?"
Withered Ye frowned and raised her head, her eyes were fixed and thoughtful: "It should be, that woman's name is Dai Yue."
Zhan Hao withdrew his eyes from the night sky, and looked at the dead leaves calmly: "The one named Dai Yue met someone outside Yuguan Tower. It should be a man, right? But it is said that he is dressed like a woman Yes, if you didn’t see the Adam’s apple, you really wouldn’t recognize it. Do you know that person too?”
Dressed like a woman?Withered Leaf straightened up subconsciously, and frowned: "He's here too?"
Zhan Hao looked at the undulating scar on Dead Leaf's face, and asked unhurriedly, "Who is he?"
"Old Xiao," Withered Ye cast his eyes on Zhan Hao's face, with a calm expression, "The fourth killer of Shadow Gate used to chase me and pinch me."
"Oh?" Zhan Hao raised his eyebrows with some interest, and raised his hand to take a sip of wine: "Can you pinch you?"
Withered Leaf snorted disdainfully, and hugged Xiao Jiao'er into her arms: "I beat him twice." Zhan Hao heard this, and bent his eyes with a half-smile on his face: "Then why don't you beat him up?" die?"
"He never acted alone. If he was defeated, he would change people to pester me, and he ran away. So, this time he appeared in that Yuguan Tower, which means that other people are there too."
"The others, do you mean the other masters of Shadow Gate?" Zhan Hao drank the wine in his glass with a calm expression on his face.Dead Leaf glanced at him, and a sneer sneered at the corner of his mouth: "The brothers of the Wang family, the four ghosts of Yinshan Mountain, including the head of the sect, should have all come. Although it is not very good, it is annoying enough to be entangled together. You can Enjoy it."
Zhan Hao stared at the dead leaves and sneered gloatingly, his eyes gradually narrowed.He seldom saw dead leaves like this, with a slightly smug look.Those little eyes, that half-smile expression, that unhurried, meaningful tone of voice... really tickles people's hearts.
"Then I'll just wait for it." Zhan Hao had an intriguing smile on his face, and his slender fingers moved slowly on the side of his chin as if he was calculating something.Seeing his calculating eyes, Dead Leaf couldn't help but feel that the Shadow Gate must suffer.After secretly slandering, she looked up and saw Zhan Hao still pensive, staring at a certain place on the table without moving.His long black hair wrapped around his shoulders to his chest, like a black waterfall, shining brightly in the faint moonlight.
The slender fingers were bony and white, and they slid from the chin to the bright red lips without any haste. Immediately, the two moist lips opened, and the neat teeth gently bit the knuckles... the dead leaves looked I was a little stunned, I thought it was an unconscious movement when he was thinking, but when he raised his eyes, he saw that Zhan Hao had lifted his lowered eyelids and was staring at him intently.
His chin was raised slightly, his lips were parted, and his fingers were embedded in the center.The eyelids of both eyes are drooping, the eyes are squinted, the clear eyeballs are looking straight at him, and the long eyelashes are trembling faintly.At the end, the eyebrow on the right raised slightly... This stark look was set off by the small mole under the corner of the left eye, and it instantly transformed into a charming expression.
Suddenly, Dead Leaf felt his spine go numb, and a shiver rushed from his tailbone to the back of his neck, making him shiver involuntarily.
Zhan Hao was driven out by Dead Leaf in a rage.
After being stunned for a while, the scar-faced fox finally blew up under Zhan Hao's harsh teasing.Standing up with the cat in his arms, he started yelling at him. While scolding, he took the feather duster beside him to drive him out.Young Master Zhan probably has never been so embarrassed in his life, being treated like this by his sweetheart, the feather duster was poked left and right, and he was driven out after a while, and the door closed with a "bang".
He was stunned at the door for a while, but couldn't hold back anymore, and stood in the corridor and laughed.The dead leaves in the room roared angrily "what are you laughing at?" Hearing his yelling, Zhan Hao was so happy that he couldn't straighten his waist.He walked all the way to the lotus pond in the outer courtyard, he was still laughing, his stomach ached a little, and it was because of this reason.
This is really... one willing to fight and one willing to suffer.After laughing for a long time, he remembered that the wine was left in his room and he forgot to take it.Zhan Hao stopped in front of the overhanging eaves pavilion, smiling and wondering if he should go back and get it again?Well, surely it will still be punched out, right?Thinking about it this way, Young Master Zhan's eyes became even more joyful.
Or pick it up later.After a while, you might see this guy's defenseless sleeping face again.
Thinking of the dead leaves rolling in a pile with the cat that night in a daze on the bed, Zhan Hao couldn't help itching.He turned to the gazebo and sat down, looking at the lotus leaves in the pond in a good mood.In the summer night, the air was stuffy and stagnant, and the insects didn't even cry out, but looking at the silent scene, Ke Zhanhao felt refreshed, like a full moon.
After waiting for half an hour, guessing that the dead leaves should have fallen asleep, Zhan Hao stood up and couldn't help but grope back.
There was silence in the small courtyard, the moon was hidden behind the clouds, and there was not even the sound of the wind blowing the grass leaves.He picked the door lock as skillfully as last time and groped into the room, but this time he smelled alcohol.Zhan Hao was taken aback for a moment, reached out and took the wine jar on the table and shook it, only to find that there was only a small half left.
The dead leaves drank.
This realization made Zhan Hao smile until his eyes narrowed.He took out the night pearl to illuminate the surroundings, and swaggered to the bed of the dead leaves.This time there is no need to act lightly at all, because this stupid guy drank his own Luofuchun.
This Luo Fuchun was made by him three years ago when he went to the mountains to pick the best mountain grapes and wild mulberries.This wine has a sweet taste and a soft mouthfeel, but it has a great aftertaste.Most people can get drunk all night after three drinks, but they didn't know it at the time, and they thought they were quite sober, so they continued to drink foolishly.When I really drink until my hands and feet become weak and my head is heavy, I probably won’t be able to get up the next morning, and I will have to sleep until the afternoon.
And this little idiot - Zhan Hao bent down with a smile, put his big hand on the dry leaf's warm forehead, and kissed him lightly on the cheek - actually drank half a jar of wine, and he didn't know how long he was going to be drunk.Drunken withered leaves had warm skin, flushed cheeks, and even flushed neck.Zhan Hao slowly pulled back the thin blanket, admiring his beautiful and firm chest.The tattoos on it were even more gorgeous due to the fine sweat, and the nipples became moist and erect.Zhan Hao gambled on it for a long time with burning eyes, finally he slowly put down the blanket and covered the body of the dead leaf.
No rush, no rush to try something new... someday.
Zhan Hao closed his eyes, took a steady breath, opened his eyes after a while, and his eyes became peaceful again.He stood quietly for a while, then turned around and went into the coat of the dead leaves to find out the ointment given to him in the evening, unplugged and dug out a piece.Zhan Hao sat on the side of the bed, brushed away the hair strands scattered with dead leaves on his face with one hand, and applied the ointment to his scar with the other hand, and then slowly rubbed it away.
The sticky ointment was gradually pushed into the skin under the warmth of the palm, and the dead leaf slightly tilted its head under the rubbing, and a small snort came out of its nose.Zhan Hao couldn't help laughing, stopped the movement of his hands, and stared at him quietly for a while.Dead Leaf closed her eyes a little unsteadily, and some fine beads of sweat ooze from the tip of her nose.The left side of his cheek was nestled in Zhan Hao's palm, maybe he felt itchy, so he rubbed it lightly.Zhan Hao stared straight at the eyes, the slightly opened lips of the dead leaf, his chin, his eyebrows, his closed eyes... Finally, he couldn't help it, sighed softly, bent down and kissed the dead leaf lips.
One day, I will openly kiss you, touch you, hug you when you are awake, and make you completely mine.
Cen Bie, only you, absolutely won't - won't let you run away.
In the past two days, Dead Leaf can clearly feel that Zhan Hao has become busy.In the past, he could always be seen wandering in the garden, and would come to him to tease the cats at noon in the morning, but now he doesn't come, and takes root in the lobby instead.Several times Dead Leaf walked past the lobby and saw him talking with Uncle Zhong unhurriedly, his usual casual eyes were unexpectedly serious.
I guess it was about business.Dead Leaf stood outside for a while, feeling bored, and strolled back to her small yard.On the table, the altar of Luo Fuchun was still there, but he drank a few sips a day, now it is empty.Dead Leaf doesn't really drink much, it's just that she was so angry that night, she wanted to throw the jar of wine out, but when she picked it up, she smelled a sweet fragrance of wine.
At that time, he hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help pouring out a little.After a taste, it actually feels very refreshing.At that time, he was also full of anger, thinking why Zhan Hao was so annoying, so he drank half of his wine in two or three strokes.As a result, it started to fail after a while, my head became dizzy, and even my hands and feet began to feel weak, my whole body was hot and sweaty, and the sweat and heat bit the scar a little painfully.When the dead leaves fell on the bed, they were still dizzy and cursed, thinking that this wine is not spicy, why is it so strong...
After thinking about it, he fell asleep in a daze, and didn't wake up until Sangan the next day.At that time, Dead Ye opened his eyes and lay on the bed for a while, then slowly got up, the back of his head was still a little heavy.
The little mandarin duck lay beside his pillow as usual, and this guy not only didn't listen to him, but even worsened it!Five kittens, all squawking and huddling together at the head of the bed, next to the pillows!I don't know which one it is, and even urinated on the mattress!
The dead leaves exploded, and then grabbed the little mandarin duck and angrily taught him a lesson.But he learned from the training, and the cat will do what it wants.Even if he put down all the curtains before going to bed at night, the next morning, there would still be no less kittens that should be on the bed.
Therefore, the maid Ji Tang had to come over every day to change his sheets.When tidying things up, the little girl always saw the dead leaves staring at the little mandarin duck with a sulky face, but the cat ignored him at all, lying on the table, lazily opening its mouth wide and continuing to yawn.
After packing up his things, Ji Tang hugged the mattress and went out with a smile.She purposely didn't look at the dead leaves, because Zhan Hao had told him from the very beginning, you brother Cen is thin-skinned and easily shy, don't laugh at him in front of him, otherwise he will become angry from embarrassment.Ji Tang lowered his head and pursed his lips, holding a pile of mattresses and blankets with a smile in his eyes, and was about to go out, when the dead leaf, who was standing silently confronting the cat, called out to her.
Hearing the sound, Ji Tang opened his eyes wide, and turned around curiously to look at the dead leaves.Dead Leaf got up with her head turned away, walked over with a stiff expression, stretched out her hand to grab the quilt, and said with dodgy eyes, "I'll help you get it over there."
Seeing his uncomfortable appearance, Ji Tang finally couldn't hold back his face, and laughed softly.Withered Ye's expression became more and more unnatural, he hesitated for a while, then lowered his head and walked out.Ji Tang followed with a smile, and after walking for a while, she said behind the dead leaves: "Brother Cen, let me come, such a small thing is not heavy."
Withered Leaf's footsteps slowed down for a moment, but immediately resumed its original rhythm.Ji Tang heard him say in a muffled voice in front: "Washing every day is quite troublesome, anyway, I have nothing to do."
After hearing his words, Ji Tang couldn't help but stretch out his hand to hide the deeper smile on his face.She began to understand why Zhan Hao liked teasing dead leaves so much. He was obviously a sharp-mouthed and tofu-hearted person, but he insisted on putting on a cold appearance. She couldn't help but want to play tricks on her, not to mention the young master. A bad-tempered person.
The two arrived at the west courtyard one after the other. When Dead Leaf came to the door, she paused for a moment, and then walked in slowly.The rich fragrance of flowers in the west courtyard cast a certain psychological shadow on him, making him hesitate every time before going in.However, after taking the medicine during this period, I feel that my nose is much better than before, at least I won't sneeze when I smell a little pungent aroma.
Ji Tang brought out a large wooden basin from the water room, filled half of it with hot water, and then poured some saponin juice into it.The dead leaves stood aside in a daze, watching her make a lot of bubbles in the water, then reached out to take the quilt and put it into the basin.
As soon as the quilt entered the water, it was quickly covered with bubbles.Ji Tang scrubbed the wet part of the cat's urine as usual, and after a while, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he lowered his head and said, "This mandarin duck-eyed white cat really likes you. The young master coaxed it many times before, but it refused Stay at home." The dead leaf was silent for a while, then glanced at the urine stain pointingly, and said in a low voice: "I can't bear this kind of liking."
Hearing his words, Ji Tang was quite surprised and at the same time laughed softly.She looked up at the dead leaf with a smile in her eyes, and for a moment, her eyes met his.Seeing the little girl's kindly curved eyes, Dead Leaf was slightly taken aback, then lowered her eyes uncomfortably and looked away.
The yard was very quiet, except for the sound of chopping vegetables from the kitchen at the other end.Through the wide open window, Dead Leaf could see two plainly dressed little girls busy back and forth.He stared at him quietly for a while, then turned his face to stare at Ji Tang.
He looked at the little girl's arms with the sleeves rolled up high because of cleaning the quilt, the white and wide palms, the fingers were not as thin as Min Wei Yuke's and the others, and looked a little rough.The dead leaf looked at it and felt strangely uncomfortable, so she stood aside and muttered in a low voice: "It's really crazy, you call these little girls as servants..."
Ji Tang knew who he was scolding, and couldn't help raising his face to look at him with a smile, and said, "Don't say that about our young master. It turned out that when the master was in charge, there were some elderly servants in the house, but later they were all taken care of by the young master. Moved to the edge of Cuiling in the outskirts of the city to retire to the elderly."
"The young master bought a small house there, specially for them to take care of them. Don't look at us now, we are young. When we become biological and have a child, the young master will not want us to take care of it. He said, the time of the girl's house is delayed. No, after becoming a mother, you should take good care of your husband and children, so all you see now are the families of little girls like me."
After hearing this, Dead Leaf couldn't help frowning, feeling a little strange: "Is he still worried about you finding your in-laws?"
"Of course," Ji Tang scrubbed and washed the quilt, with the corners of his mouth hooked, and his tone was gentle and brisk, "there used to be a sister Liu Yan, and the young master helped to find a good wife. Our brother-in-law Yan is very good-natured, smart and generous, and everyone loves her." It is said that the young master’s eyes are poisonous, and he is accurate in judging people! Now that sister Yuke is about the same age, I think the young master is already looking for someone for her.”
Withered Ye listened to it, and slightly raised her eyebrows.He lowered his head and thought, doesn't that Yu Ke like Zhan Hao?Thinking of this, a trace of doubt unconsciously appeared in his eyes.Ji Tang glanced up and smiled faintly again: "Do you want to ask, Miss Yuke likes the young master so much, why is she willing to marry?"
Withered Leaf looked at her uncomfortably, twitched the corner of her mouth, and said stiffly, "I just wonder why so many people like him so hard."
After hearing this, Ji Tang raised his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes leisurely.She put down the work in her hands, turned around, stared at the dead leaves with a calm face, and asked: "What do you think our young master is like?"
These words stopped Dead Leaf, and he felt a little inexplicably guilty in the face of the little girl's rather serious and dissatisfied eyes.In fact, after careful study, there is nothing wrong with Zhan Hao.Aside from good looks, one needs to speak and behave decently, one needs to be talented, capable and competent.But he is always unpredictable, he always smiles plainly, speaks in a leisurely manner, and also...
"...often playing tricks on others." Withered Leaf thought for a while, and finally muttered a word bitterly.Ji Tang blinked and burst out laughing.Smiling, he stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, but accidentally got foam on his face.
"Brother Cen, you really don't know your blessings." Ji Tang smiled at him while wiping the soapy bubbles on his face: "How many people are waiting for our young master to tease you, which means that the young master is willing to get close to him .Now the young master likes to play with you, but you don't want to."
Dead Leaf glanced at her when she heard the words, and said angrily: "Those people must be crazy, and he Zhan Hao is not normal. If others want it, he should play tricks on others." The implication is that I don't care He plays with me.
Hearing what he said, Ji Tang was overjoyed: "Others can't afford to play with our young master, and they have to give up on him after a few blows. Look at the top card in Yuehua Building, and the eldest son of the Yan family, who is not?" Is he thinking about the young master? I think the reason why the young master is close to you is probably because he thinks you are cool and attractive, so he won't be easily attracted to him, right?" After finishing speaking, he winked meaningfully at him.
Withered Ye sneered sneeringly, and looked away with disdain: "I won't be tempted by anyone I'm tempted by, and I don't think life is too long."
"Hehe, Brother Cen is really strong against our young master." Ji Tang squinted and smiled, showing a small canine tooth in his mouth: "But I'm curious, what kind of young master will he like?" Where is the person?" As she spoke, the little girl's eyes slowly opened, her face was straightened, her unhurried smile was facing the dead leaves, her eyes were somewhat meaningful.
Withered Leaf looked at her expressionlessly for a long time, then raised his eyebrows, and looked away indifferently.
Anyone can, it has nothing to do with me anyway.
This is indeed Dead Leaf's true thoughts.From the very beginning until now, he has always known that Zhan Hao is not a kind person.This person is a typical smiling tiger, looking gentle and elegant, but if he sets his sights on someone, he will definitely eat him to the brim.
He doesn't care who a person like Zhan Hao will stay for, and it has nothing to do with him.All he needs to do now is to simply follow Zhan Hao's side, and do some things he told himself - if he is not an enemy of him, he will not be tricked by him.
After all, I have nothing to do now, and I have to rely on this smiling tiger to arrange my specific life.
In the afternoon, Zhan Hao was going to the spice shop to see the goods, he said that the dead leaves had a delicate nose and could not smell the smell, so he didn't take him there.With nothing to do, Dead Leaf practiced in the yard.Just as he was walking through the acupoints with luck, the withered leaf knife in his hand danced with the strength so that the cold air overflowed. Suddenly, there was a subtle sound of breaking through the air.Withered Ye moved its ears, turned around and swung the knife reflexively - a small white ball was split in half and fell to the ground, with a ball of paper inside rolling out.
Dead Leaf frowned for a while, then raised her head and looked around again.There was silence around the yard, and the breath of a person was drifting away with the sound of the wind.Dead Leaf stood still for a while, making sure that the person had left, then knelt down to pick up the paper ball.
He unfolded the note, and on a small piece of paper was written "Luoying Mountain" in three beautiful small characters, which seemed to be written by a woman.Withered Ye frowned, put his nose to the note and smelled it, and there was a faint scent of fire.
Dai Yue.
What kind of tricks does she want to play?Luoying Mountain... Where is Luoying Mountain?
Withered Leaf stood there and pondered for a while, feeling clueless, so she frowned impatiently, turned and walked towards the middle courtyard.
Beside the lobby, Zhan Hao and Uncle Zhong were walking from the other side of the yard. As soon as their left foot stepped into the lobby, a dead leaf walked in from the other side with their right foot.When Zhan Hao saw him, he raised his eyebrows with interest, and said with a smile, "Yo, did you come here on purpose to greet me?"
Withered Ye cast a wide glance, and without saying a word, rolled up the note and threw it at him.Zhan Hao stretched out his hand to catch it with a smile, opened his head and looked down, raised his eyebrows and said, "Luoying Mountain? Where is Luoying Mountain?" Withered Leaf gave him a sideways expressionless look, and said, "I don't know, Dai Yue came out of the yard just now Throw it to me."
On the side, Uncle Zhong leaned over, looked at the words on the note, and said with a calm face: "Isn't Luoying Mountain the property of the Lin family in Suzhou? It's the best yew garden. The Cao family lost money in Jin Shengxi before. The piece that doesn’t sell.”
"Yew?" After being reminded by Uncle Zhong, Zhan Hao finally remembered: "The Cao family's fir garden that you asked me to buy three years ago, but the Lin family preempted it?"
Uncle Zhong sat aside, and the old god was on the ground holding up the teacup and twisting the lid, and moved slightly in their direction: "That's the one."
Zhan Hao raised the corners of his mouth noncommittally, looked at the dead leaves, then at Uncle Zhong, and sat down on the ground in a daze after a while: "This Miss Dai Yue is really mysterious, she avoided seeing her when we were looking for her, no Pay attention to her, she sent another inexplicable letter, I don't know what she wants to do." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to support his head on the table, and sighed absent-mindedly.
Uncle Zhong also sighed at the side, the appearance of the two of them leaning against the table and propping their heads with their hands is really exactly the same, there is no difference.Withered Ye stood aside and looked at them, feeling a throbbing pain in his head for some reason.Anyway, the three of them had no clue, he rolled his eyes, turned around and was about to go back to his room, but unexpectedly, Uncle Zhong called out slowly: "That, little Cen..."
Zhan Hao laughed out loud at the side.
The veins on the forehead of the dead leaf were faintly bulging, and she turned around with a stiff face, her eyes full of forbearance.Uncle Zhong looked at him and smiled, and said calmly, "You didn't call me when you entered the room just now, did you?"
Zhan Hao lowered his head and covered his face with his hands.
The dead leaf's Adam's apple rolled twice, and the veins on his forehead began to twitch violently.Uncle Zhong looked at his increasingly entangled eyes, and smiled even more happily: "I'm also an elder anyway, it shouldn't be an exaggeration for you to call me uncle like a young master?"
Zhan Hao quietly opened a finger, raised his eyes to see the expression of the dead leaf.
The dead leaf gritted her molars slightly, and her brows became more and more tightly wrinkled. Zhong Yunde watched his eyes change for a while, and finally fixed on "Patience".he was silent
There are too many flowers in spring, and the pollen often chokes the nose; it is too hot in summer, and the scars on the face and body will itch.
If someone had asked, Dead Leaf might have said, but he had never been asked such insignificant questions.Only a long time ago, more than ten years ago, his elder brother Cen Li once asked this question.Ask if there are any mosquito bites when you go to bed at night, and ask if it is cold in winter, do you want to wear an extra layer of clothes.
Life at that time was very happy, even considered carefree, and I never had to worry about what would happen tomorrow.Until the eldest brother died, the dream also woke up.
It was also at that time that Dead Leaf began to understand that others would not ask him such questions.What they care about is their own food and clothing, their own emotions.After entering the rivers and lakes, at a young age, he quickly learned to be silent, reticent and expressionless.It's not that I don't want to say something, but that no one will listen to it, so I don't say it, and no one wants to know anyway.
Year after year passed like this, gradually becoming a cold and numb person.
In the afternoon, the water vapor in the air of Changzhou Prefecture gradually condensed, accompanied by the rising heat since the beginning of summer, which made the dead leaves feel upset.It is estimated that it will rain again tonight, and the sweltering heat before the rain is the most uncomfortable. There is a tingling itch like insects and ants gnawing at the place where the scar is connected to the skin, which makes people want to reach out and pick at it.But the itchy area was covered under the scar, so the dead leaves would feel upset at this time, and the aura around the whole body was extremely low.
At dinner in the evening, when Yu Ke came over to serve the dishes, she gave him a hard look for some reason, and Dead Leaf felt puzzled, so she raised her head and glanced at her, which actually made the little girl turn pale with fright.Zhan Hao saw Yu Ke put away the bowls and chopsticks in fear and anger, and then ran out like flying.In a blink of an eye, I saw half of the dead leaf's face that was so black, I couldn't help but feel funny.
"Who messed with you again? Look at your stinky face." Zhan Hao said slowly, while reaching out to pick up a chopstick to pick up cabbage.Withered Ye picked up the chopsticks and said in a low and perfunctory voice, "It's okay." While speaking, he turned his face away and rubbed on his shoulder impatiently, and a small grunt came out of his throat.
While chewing vegetables, Zhan Hao looked at his mask-covered left face, looking absent-minded.After a while, Dead Leaf's already frowning brow tightened a bit, he put down his chopsticks, reached out and rubbed the left side of his face vigorously through the leather mask, his expression was gritted.Zhan Hao laughed softly, and said slowly: "If you feel itchy, just take it off, it's really uncomfortable to wear."
Withered Ye raised her head and glared at him rather depressedly, muttering in a low voice: "...I won't take it."
Zhan Hao laughed again: "Do you think that scar is ugly?"
Dead Leaf glared at him again, but ignored him this time.Zhan Hao raised his eyebrows meaningfully, put down his chopsticks, and reached into his sleeves to dig in and out.Dead Leaf stared suspiciously at his movements, and after a while, saw him take out a small cork bottle from inside.
With a smile in his eyes, Zhan Hao reached out and handed him the bottle.Withered Ye frowned and looked at it for a long while, but didn't move her hands.He stared at Zhan Hao's smiling face, and asked suspiciously: "What is this?" Zhan Hao tilted his head helplessly, and said, "The scar removal medicine I applied to you before has the effect of relieving itching and promoting muscle growth."
Dead Leaf's face became stinky when he heard it, and he gave him a furious look, then turned his face and ate bitterly: "I don't need this!"
Zhan Hao narrowed his eyes amusedly, and if he looked carefully, he could still see a look of pampering and indulgence.He stretched out his hand and stuffed the ointment into the skirt of the dead leaf without any explanation, and said, "You just take it, and seeing how upset you are, don't scare my little maid." After finishing speaking, he curled his lips , started to eat leisurely, and made the dead leaves angry, neither was it rejection nor was it.This reason really... hit him right in the door.
I was depressed for a while, and finally I had to accept it aggrieved.Thinking of the sticky touch on her face before, Dead Leaf silently felt that she was even more upset.
Now that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, it's starting to be a headache to sleep at night.The little mandarin duck is a long-haired cat that sheds its hair in spring and summer, and its hair is covered with dead leaves all over its clothes and pants.Sometimes cats get tired of him, and with a flick of their tail, a few cat hairs will fly lightly onto his face.Now that the kitten is born, I don’t take good care of it. Every night, I still have to crawl to the pillow and sleep next to his ear.Sometimes when I wake up in the middle of the night, the left half of my neck is covered with fine beads of sweat and a few wet cat hairs.
Dead Leaf is angry and angry, but he can't do anything with a cat, so the little mandarin duck is content to make progress.
"Tonight, you have to stay in the nest honestly, understand?!"
Withered Ye sat by the bed, holding the little mandarin duck's head and cursing at it.The cat squatted on his crossed legs, opened a pair of round eyes of different colors, and looked at the dead leaves with a half-understanding face. After a long while, it made a "meow", turned around and pointed its butt at him.Withered Leaf was so anxious that she couldn't help but picked up the cat and threw it to the ground ruthlessly.The cat landed nimbly and lightly, wagging its tail gracefully, turned around and glanced at the exasperated dead leaf triumphantly.
Dead Leaf gritted her teeth, but she had no choice but to put down the bed curtain that had been hanging all along.Just as she was about to lie down depressed, there was a soft knock on the door.Withered Ye was faintly startled—he didn't hear this person's footsteps or breath just now!Just as he drew his knife vigilantly and was about to turn over and get out of bed, Zhan Hao's deep and unhurried voice sounded from outside: "Bie Cen, are you asleep?"
The dead leaf's movements stopped for an instant, and then felt a sense of powerless discouragement.Recently, he has been feeling this way all the time, the energy he is holding back all over his body can't be realized, and he always hits the soft cotton.Zhan Hao is smiling all day long, and always does some inexplicable things, such as picking him up, helping him see a doctor, and now getting him some scar-removing medicine.
I really have nothing to do.Dead Leaf cursed secretly, put on her coat and went to open the door for him.Zhan Hao heard his footsteps outside, with a faint smile on his face.After a while, there was a sound of pulling the door latch inside, and the two doors opened with a "huh", revealing Dead Leaf's sulky face.
No mask.
Zhan Hao narrowed his eyes, his left eyebrow raised faintly.Dead Leaf stared at him with a stinky face, and said, "What are you doing?"
"Ah," Zhan Hao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his fingers were trying to hide his emotions, he stroked his eyebrows slowly, and after a while a faint smile appeared on his face, "I can't sleep, so I came to chat with you. "
The dead leaves were angry, and he wanted to close the door with his hand, but Zhan Hao walked in with a short body like a ghost.Dead Leaf was stunned, then blew up, slammed the door and scolded him angrily: "Zhan Hao, what kind of crazy are you in the middle of the night! If you can't sleep, go find someone else, I'm sleepy!"
Zhan Hao smiled and stood by the table with his back turned to him, stretched out his hand to put something on the table, and said slowly: "Hey, don't be angry, it's still early, just after Xu, what are you in a hurry for?" He turned around and smiled at him with a jar in his hand: "Why don't we have a drink?"
Withered Leaf gritted her teeth and stared at him, but the other party was still smiling—it was such a face again!As the saying goes, you don't reach out to hit a smiling person, but now Dead Leaf feels that she is going to be beaten to death by this smiling person!After coming to Zhan's house for more than a month, which day will he not show off his spirits twice?Unexpectedly, he still smiled in a gentle and elegant manner, which made people's teeth itch but he couldn't help it. It was true that the dead could be suffocated by him.
Seeing that his hair was still blown, Zhan Hao knew that he was unwilling to accept this proposal, so he put down the wine first with a sigh, then turned around and walked towards the cat's nest.As soon as he walked away, something on the table was revealed.Withered Ye frowned and took a closer look, and saw that it was a pot of orange flowers.The branches of this flower are slender, and the leaves are thin and thin, not as big as the petals.The entire flower disc is similar to a fist, six fat petals are rolled out, and many stamens spit out tremblingly from inside.
"What is this?" Withered Leaf frowned, reaching out to touch the fat petals.
Zhan Hao stretched out his hand to hug Xiaojiaoer, and said while stroking it, "This is the volumetric pill, it's for you."
"Why did you give me the flowers?" After hearing this, Dead Leaf couldn't help feeling a bit annoyed while being puzzled.He thought to himself, why is Zhan Hao getting more and more obsessed?It's fine to leave this troublesome cat with him, why send potted flowers over again?
Zhan Hao walked slowly to the table and sat down, took out a glass and poured some wine, took a sip relished, and said, "I think it looks good, so I'll give it to you."
Think it looks good?What is the reason!Withered Ye frowned and stared at him, then turned her face to stare at the flower, feeling more and more disturbed.The little Jiaoer over there was woken up by Zhan Hao, he grabbed his clothes with his little paws and groaned twice.Zhan Hao hugged it and smiled, and even stretched out his hand to poke its belly, saying, "Little Jiaoer, I haven't gained weight in a few days, it's growing so fast."
Seeing his uneventful movements, Dead Leaf reached out with a dark face and snatched the cat.Zhan Hao raised his head to look at him in surprise, and saw Dead Ye rolled his eyes at him, then carefully massaged the cat's stomach with his fingers: "Don't mess with the cat's stomach, I just drank milk, it's time to spit it out soon. "Zhan Hao looked at his skillful and natural movements with raised eyebrows, feeling a little strange in his heart-what's the matter with this appearance of a good wife and mother?Seeing Xiao Jiaoer look like his daughter, this is so precious.
After thinking about it, Zhan Hao smiled.Dead Leaf looked up at him, ignored him, and continued rubbing the little guy's belly.Zhan Hao looked at the person and the cat leisurely, took a sip of wine for a while, looked at the misty moon in the sky outside, which looked like a circle of hair, and said unhurriedly: "The people under my command just now have letters. My son is here, saying that there is a new little girl named Wanyue in Yuehua Building, who changes the incense in the building every day, she looks pretty pretty, and in the middle of the night, she changed into red clothes and ran to the Yuguan Tower of the Yan family... ...Is it the one from Shadow Gate who reported to you?"
Withered Ye frowned and raised her head, her eyes were fixed and thoughtful: "It should be, that woman's name is Dai Yue."
Zhan Hao withdrew his eyes from the night sky, and looked at the dead leaves calmly: "The one named Dai Yue met someone outside Yuguan Tower. It should be a man, right? But it is said that he is dressed like a woman Yes, if you didn’t see the Adam’s apple, you really wouldn’t recognize it. Do you know that person too?”
Dressed like a woman?Withered Leaf straightened up subconsciously, and frowned: "He's here too?"
Zhan Hao looked at the undulating scar on Dead Leaf's face, and asked unhurriedly, "Who is he?"
"Old Xiao," Withered Ye cast his eyes on Zhan Hao's face, with a calm expression, "The fourth killer of Shadow Gate used to chase me and pinch me."
"Oh?" Zhan Hao raised his eyebrows with some interest, and raised his hand to take a sip of wine: "Can you pinch you?"
Withered Leaf snorted disdainfully, and hugged Xiao Jiao'er into her arms: "I beat him twice." Zhan Hao heard this, and bent his eyes with a half-smile on his face: "Then why don't you beat him up?" die?"
"He never acted alone. If he was defeated, he would change people to pester me, and he ran away. So, this time he appeared in that Yuguan Tower, which means that other people are there too."
"The others, do you mean the other masters of Shadow Gate?" Zhan Hao drank the wine in his glass with a calm expression on his face.Dead Leaf glanced at him, and a sneer sneered at the corner of his mouth: "The brothers of the Wang family, the four ghosts of Yinshan Mountain, including the head of the sect, should have all come. Although it is not very good, it is annoying enough to be entangled together. You can Enjoy it."
Zhan Hao stared at the dead leaves and sneered gloatingly, his eyes gradually narrowed.He seldom saw dead leaves like this, with a slightly smug look.Those little eyes, that half-smile expression, that unhurried, meaningful tone of voice... really tickles people's hearts.
"Then I'll just wait for it." Zhan Hao had an intriguing smile on his face, and his slender fingers moved slowly on the side of his chin as if he was calculating something.Seeing his calculating eyes, Dead Leaf couldn't help but feel that the Shadow Gate must suffer.After secretly slandering, she looked up and saw Zhan Hao still pensive, staring at a certain place on the table without moving.His long black hair wrapped around his shoulders to his chest, like a black waterfall, shining brightly in the faint moonlight.
The slender fingers were bony and white, and they slid from the chin to the bright red lips without any haste. Immediately, the two moist lips opened, and the neat teeth gently bit the knuckles... the dead leaves looked I was a little stunned, I thought it was an unconscious movement when he was thinking, but when he raised his eyes, he saw that Zhan Hao had lifted his lowered eyelids and was staring at him intently.
His chin was raised slightly, his lips were parted, and his fingers were embedded in the center.The eyelids of both eyes are drooping, the eyes are squinted, the clear eyeballs are looking straight at him, and the long eyelashes are trembling faintly.At the end, the eyebrow on the right raised slightly... This stark look was set off by the small mole under the corner of the left eye, and it instantly transformed into a charming expression.
Suddenly, Dead Leaf felt his spine go numb, and a shiver rushed from his tailbone to the back of his neck, making him shiver involuntarily.
Zhan Hao was driven out by Dead Leaf in a rage.
After being stunned for a while, the scar-faced fox finally blew up under Zhan Hao's harsh teasing.Standing up with the cat in his arms, he started yelling at him. While scolding, he took the feather duster beside him to drive him out.Young Master Zhan probably has never been so embarrassed in his life, being treated like this by his sweetheart, the feather duster was poked left and right, and he was driven out after a while, and the door closed with a "bang".
He was stunned at the door for a while, but couldn't hold back anymore, and stood in the corridor and laughed.The dead leaves in the room roared angrily "what are you laughing at?" Hearing his yelling, Zhan Hao was so happy that he couldn't straighten his waist.He walked all the way to the lotus pond in the outer courtyard, he was still laughing, his stomach ached a little, and it was because of this reason.
This is really... one willing to fight and one willing to suffer.After laughing for a long time, he remembered that the wine was left in his room and he forgot to take it.Zhan Hao stopped in front of the overhanging eaves pavilion, smiling and wondering if he should go back and get it again?Well, surely it will still be punched out, right?Thinking about it this way, Young Master Zhan's eyes became even more joyful.
Or pick it up later.After a while, you might see this guy's defenseless sleeping face again.
Thinking of the dead leaves rolling in a pile with the cat that night in a daze on the bed, Zhan Hao couldn't help itching.He turned to the gazebo and sat down, looking at the lotus leaves in the pond in a good mood.In the summer night, the air was stuffy and stagnant, and the insects didn't even cry out, but looking at the silent scene, Ke Zhanhao felt refreshed, like a full moon.
After waiting for half an hour, guessing that the dead leaves should have fallen asleep, Zhan Hao stood up and couldn't help but grope back.
There was silence in the small courtyard, the moon was hidden behind the clouds, and there was not even the sound of the wind blowing the grass leaves.He picked the door lock as skillfully as last time and groped into the room, but this time he smelled alcohol.Zhan Hao was taken aback for a moment, reached out and took the wine jar on the table and shook it, only to find that there was only a small half left.
The dead leaves drank.
This realization made Zhan Hao smile until his eyes narrowed.He took out the night pearl to illuminate the surroundings, and swaggered to the bed of the dead leaves.This time there is no need to act lightly at all, because this stupid guy drank his own Luofuchun.
This Luo Fuchun was made by him three years ago when he went to the mountains to pick the best mountain grapes and wild mulberries.This wine has a sweet taste and a soft mouthfeel, but it has a great aftertaste.Most people can get drunk all night after three drinks, but they didn't know it at the time, and they thought they were quite sober, so they continued to drink foolishly.When I really drink until my hands and feet become weak and my head is heavy, I probably won’t be able to get up the next morning, and I will have to sleep until the afternoon.
And this little idiot - Zhan Hao bent down with a smile, put his big hand on the dry leaf's warm forehead, and kissed him lightly on the cheek - actually drank half a jar of wine, and he didn't know how long he was going to be drunk.Drunken withered leaves had warm skin, flushed cheeks, and even flushed neck.Zhan Hao slowly pulled back the thin blanket, admiring his beautiful and firm chest.The tattoos on it were even more gorgeous due to the fine sweat, and the nipples became moist and erect.Zhan Hao gambled on it for a long time with burning eyes, finally he slowly put down the blanket and covered the body of the dead leaf.
No rush, no rush to try something new... someday.
Zhan Hao closed his eyes, took a steady breath, opened his eyes after a while, and his eyes became peaceful again.He stood quietly for a while, then turned around and went into the coat of the dead leaves to find out the ointment given to him in the evening, unplugged and dug out a piece.Zhan Hao sat on the side of the bed, brushed away the hair strands scattered with dead leaves on his face with one hand, and applied the ointment to his scar with the other hand, and then slowly rubbed it away.
The sticky ointment was gradually pushed into the skin under the warmth of the palm, and the dead leaf slightly tilted its head under the rubbing, and a small snort came out of its nose.Zhan Hao couldn't help laughing, stopped the movement of his hands, and stared at him quietly for a while.Dead Leaf closed her eyes a little unsteadily, and some fine beads of sweat ooze from the tip of her nose.The left side of his cheek was nestled in Zhan Hao's palm, maybe he felt itchy, so he rubbed it lightly.Zhan Hao stared straight at the eyes, the slightly opened lips of the dead leaf, his chin, his eyebrows, his closed eyes... Finally, he couldn't help it, sighed softly, bent down and kissed the dead leaf lips.
One day, I will openly kiss you, touch you, hug you when you are awake, and make you completely mine.
Cen Bie, only you, absolutely won't - won't let you run away.
In the past two days, Dead Leaf can clearly feel that Zhan Hao has become busy.In the past, he could always be seen wandering in the garden, and would come to him to tease the cats at noon in the morning, but now he doesn't come, and takes root in the lobby instead.Several times Dead Leaf walked past the lobby and saw him talking with Uncle Zhong unhurriedly, his usual casual eyes were unexpectedly serious.
I guess it was about business.Dead Leaf stood outside for a while, feeling bored, and strolled back to her small yard.On the table, the altar of Luo Fuchun was still there, but he drank a few sips a day, now it is empty.Dead Leaf doesn't really drink much, it's just that she was so angry that night, she wanted to throw the jar of wine out, but when she picked it up, she smelled a sweet fragrance of wine.
At that time, he hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help pouring out a little.After a taste, it actually feels very refreshing.At that time, he was also full of anger, thinking why Zhan Hao was so annoying, so he drank half of his wine in two or three strokes.As a result, it started to fail after a while, my head became dizzy, and even my hands and feet began to feel weak, my whole body was hot and sweaty, and the sweat and heat bit the scar a little painfully.When the dead leaves fell on the bed, they were still dizzy and cursed, thinking that this wine is not spicy, why is it so strong...
After thinking about it, he fell asleep in a daze, and didn't wake up until Sangan the next day.At that time, Dead Ye opened his eyes and lay on the bed for a while, then slowly got up, the back of his head was still a little heavy.
The little mandarin duck lay beside his pillow as usual, and this guy not only didn't listen to him, but even worsened it!Five kittens, all squawking and huddling together at the head of the bed, next to the pillows!I don't know which one it is, and even urinated on the mattress!
The dead leaves exploded, and then grabbed the little mandarin duck and angrily taught him a lesson.But he learned from the training, and the cat will do what it wants.Even if he put down all the curtains before going to bed at night, the next morning, there would still be no less kittens that should be on the bed.
Therefore, the maid Ji Tang had to come over every day to change his sheets.When tidying things up, the little girl always saw the dead leaves staring at the little mandarin duck with a sulky face, but the cat ignored him at all, lying on the table, lazily opening its mouth wide and continuing to yawn.
After packing up his things, Ji Tang hugged the mattress and went out with a smile.She purposely didn't look at the dead leaves, because Zhan Hao had told him from the very beginning, you brother Cen is thin-skinned and easily shy, don't laugh at him in front of him, otherwise he will become angry from embarrassment.Ji Tang lowered his head and pursed his lips, holding a pile of mattresses and blankets with a smile in his eyes, and was about to go out, when the dead leaf, who was standing silently confronting the cat, called out to her.
Hearing the sound, Ji Tang opened his eyes wide, and turned around curiously to look at the dead leaves.Dead Leaf got up with her head turned away, walked over with a stiff expression, stretched out her hand to grab the quilt, and said with dodgy eyes, "I'll help you get it over there."
Seeing his uncomfortable appearance, Ji Tang finally couldn't hold back his face, and laughed softly.Withered Ye's expression became more and more unnatural, he hesitated for a while, then lowered his head and walked out.Ji Tang followed with a smile, and after walking for a while, she said behind the dead leaves: "Brother Cen, let me come, such a small thing is not heavy."
Withered Leaf's footsteps slowed down for a moment, but immediately resumed its original rhythm.Ji Tang heard him say in a muffled voice in front: "Washing every day is quite troublesome, anyway, I have nothing to do."
After hearing his words, Ji Tang couldn't help but stretch out his hand to hide the deeper smile on his face.She began to understand why Zhan Hao liked teasing dead leaves so much. He was obviously a sharp-mouthed and tofu-hearted person, but he insisted on putting on a cold appearance. She couldn't help but want to play tricks on her, not to mention the young master. A bad-tempered person.
The two arrived at the west courtyard one after the other. When Dead Leaf came to the door, she paused for a moment, and then walked in slowly.The rich fragrance of flowers in the west courtyard cast a certain psychological shadow on him, making him hesitate every time before going in.However, after taking the medicine during this period, I feel that my nose is much better than before, at least I won't sneeze when I smell a little pungent aroma.
Ji Tang brought out a large wooden basin from the water room, filled half of it with hot water, and then poured some saponin juice into it.The dead leaves stood aside in a daze, watching her make a lot of bubbles in the water, then reached out to take the quilt and put it into the basin.
As soon as the quilt entered the water, it was quickly covered with bubbles.Ji Tang scrubbed the wet part of the cat's urine as usual, and after a while, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he lowered his head and said, "This mandarin duck-eyed white cat really likes you. The young master coaxed it many times before, but it refused Stay at home." The dead leaf was silent for a while, then glanced at the urine stain pointingly, and said in a low voice: "I can't bear this kind of liking."
Hearing his words, Ji Tang was quite surprised and at the same time laughed softly.She looked up at the dead leaf with a smile in her eyes, and for a moment, her eyes met his.Seeing the little girl's kindly curved eyes, Dead Leaf was slightly taken aback, then lowered her eyes uncomfortably and looked away.
The yard was very quiet, except for the sound of chopping vegetables from the kitchen at the other end.Through the wide open window, Dead Leaf could see two plainly dressed little girls busy back and forth.He stared at him quietly for a while, then turned his face to stare at Ji Tang.
He looked at the little girl's arms with the sleeves rolled up high because of cleaning the quilt, the white and wide palms, the fingers were not as thin as Min Wei Yuke's and the others, and looked a little rough.The dead leaf looked at it and felt strangely uncomfortable, so she stood aside and muttered in a low voice: "It's really crazy, you call these little girls as servants..."
Ji Tang knew who he was scolding, and couldn't help raising his face to look at him with a smile, and said, "Don't say that about our young master. It turned out that when the master was in charge, there were some elderly servants in the house, but later they were all taken care of by the young master. Moved to the edge of Cuiling in the outskirts of the city to retire to the elderly."
"The young master bought a small house there, specially for them to take care of them. Don't look at us now, we are young. When we become biological and have a child, the young master will not want us to take care of it. He said, the time of the girl's house is delayed. No, after becoming a mother, you should take good care of your husband and children, so all you see now are the families of little girls like me."
After hearing this, Dead Leaf couldn't help frowning, feeling a little strange: "Is he still worried about you finding your in-laws?"
"Of course," Ji Tang scrubbed and washed the quilt, with the corners of his mouth hooked, and his tone was gentle and brisk, "there used to be a sister Liu Yan, and the young master helped to find a good wife. Our brother-in-law Yan is very good-natured, smart and generous, and everyone loves her." It is said that the young master’s eyes are poisonous, and he is accurate in judging people! Now that sister Yuke is about the same age, I think the young master is already looking for someone for her.”
Withered Ye listened to it, and slightly raised her eyebrows.He lowered his head and thought, doesn't that Yu Ke like Zhan Hao?Thinking of this, a trace of doubt unconsciously appeared in his eyes.Ji Tang glanced up and smiled faintly again: "Do you want to ask, Miss Yuke likes the young master so much, why is she willing to marry?"
Withered Leaf looked at her uncomfortably, twitched the corner of her mouth, and said stiffly, "I just wonder why so many people like him so hard."
After hearing this, Ji Tang raised his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes leisurely.She put down the work in her hands, turned around, stared at the dead leaves with a calm face, and asked: "What do you think our young master is like?"
These words stopped Dead Leaf, and he felt a little inexplicably guilty in the face of the little girl's rather serious and dissatisfied eyes.In fact, after careful study, there is nothing wrong with Zhan Hao.Aside from good looks, one needs to speak and behave decently, one needs to be talented, capable and competent.But he is always unpredictable, he always smiles plainly, speaks in a leisurely manner, and also...
"...often playing tricks on others." Withered Leaf thought for a while, and finally muttered a word bitterly.Ji Tang blinked and burst out laughing.Smiling, he stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, but accidentally got foam on his face.
"Brother Cen, you really don't know your blessings." Ji Tang smiled at him while wiping the soapy bubbles on his face: "How many people are waiting for our young master to tease you, which means that the young master is willing to get close to him .Now the young master likes to play with you, but you don't want to."
Dead Leaf glanced at her when she heard the words, and said angrily: "Those people must be crazy, and he Zhan Hao is not normal. If others want it, he should play tricks on others." The implication is that I don't care He plays with me.
Hearing what he said, Ji Tang was overjoyed: "Others can't afford to play with our young master, and they have to give up on him after a few blows. Look at the top card in Yuehua Building, and the eldest son of the Yan family, who is not?" Is he thinking about the young master? I think the reason why the young master is close to you is probably because he thinks you are cool and attractive, so he won't be easily attracted to him, right?" After finishing speaking, he winked meaningfully at him.
Withered Ye sneered sneeringly, and looked away with disdain: "I won't be tempted by anyone I'm tempted by, and I don't think life is too long."
"Hehe, Brother Cen is really strong against our young master." Ji Tang squinted and smiled, showing a small canine tooth in his mouth: "But I'm curious, what kind of young master will he like?" Where is the person?" As she spoke, the little girl's eyes slowly opened, her face was straightened, her unhurried smile was facing the dead leaves, her eyes were somewhat meaningful.
Withered Leaf looked at her expressionlessly for a long time, then raised his eyebrows, and looked away indifferently.
Anyone can, it has nothing to do with me anyway.
This is indeed Dead Leaf's true thoughts.From the very beginning until now, he has always known that Zhan Hao is not a kind person.This person is a typical smiling tiger, looking gentle and elegant, but if he sets his sights on someone, he will definitely eat him to the brim.
He doesn't care who a person like Zhan Hao will stay for, and it has nothing to do with him.All he needs to do now is to simply follow Zhan Hao's side, and do some things he told himself - if he is not an enemy of him, he will not be tricked by him.
After all, I have nothing to do now, and I have to rely on this smiling tiger to arrange my specific life.
In the afternoon, Zhan Hao was going to the spice shop to see the goods, he said that the dead leaves had a delicate nose and could not smell the smell, so he didn't take him there.With nothing to do, Dead Leaf practiced in the yard.Just as he was walking through the acupoints with luck, the withered leaf knife in his hand danced with the strength so that the cold air overflowed. Suddenly, there was a subtle sound of breaking through the air.Withered Ye moved its ears, turned around and swung the knife reflexively - a small white ball was split in half and fell to the ground, with a ball of paper inside rolling out.
Dead Leaf frowned for a while, then raised her head and looked around again.There was silence around the yard, and the breath of a person was drifting away with the sound of the wind.Dead Leaf stood still for a while, making sure that the person had left, then knelt down to pick up the paper ball.
He unfolded the note, and on a small piece of paper was written "Luoying Mountain" in three beautiful small characters, which seemed to be written by a woman.Withered Ye frowned, put his nose to the note and smelled it, and there was a faint scent of fire.
Dai Yue.
What kind of tricks does she want to play?Luoying Mountain... Where is Luoying Mountain?
Withered Leaf stood there and pondered for a while, feeling clueless, so she frowned impatiently, turned and walked towards the middle courtyard.
Beside the lobby, Zhan Hao and Uncle Zhong were walking from the other side of the yard. As soon as their left foot stepped into the lobby, a dead leaf walked in from the other side with their right foot.When Zhan Hao saw him, he raised his eyebrows with interest, and said with a smile, "Yo, did you come here on purpose to greet me?"
Withered Ye cast a wide glance, and without saying a word, rolled up the note and threw it at him.Zhan Hao stretched out his hand to catch it with a smile, opened his head and looked down, raised his eyebrows and said, "Luoying Mountain? Where is Luoying Mountain?" Withered Leaf gave him a sideways expressionless look, and said, "I don't know, Dai Yue came out of the yard just now Throw it to me."
On the side, Uncle Zhong leaned over, looked at the words on the note, and said with a calm face: "Isn't Luoying Mountain the property of the Lin family in Suzhou? It's the best yew garden. The Cao family lost money in Jin Shengxi before. The piece that doesn’t sell.”
"Yew?" After being reminded by Uncle Zhong, Zhan Hao finally remembered: "The Cao family's fir garden that you asked me to buy three years ago, but the Lin family preempted it?"
Uncle Zhong sat aside, and the old god was on the ground holding up the teacup and twisting the lid, and moved slightly in their direction: "That's the one."
Zhan Hao raised the corners of his mouth noncommittally, looked at the dead leaves, then at Uncle Zhong, and sat down on the ground in a daze after a while: "This Miss Dai Yue is really mysterious, she avoided seeing her when we were looking for her, no Pay attention to her, she sent another inexplicable letter, I don't know what she wants to do." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to support his head on the table, and sighed absent-mindedly.
Uncle Zhong also sighed at the side, the appearance of the two of them leaning against the table and propping their heads with their hands is really exactly the same, there is no difference.Withered Ye stood aside and looked at them, feeling a throbbing pain in his head for some reason.Anyway, the three of them had no clue, he rolled his eyes, turned around and was about to go back to his room, but unexpectedly, Uncle Zhong called out slowly: "That, little Cen..."
Zhan Hao laughed out loud at the side.
The veins on the forehead of the dead leaf were faintly bulging, and she turned around with a stiff face, her eyes full of forbearance.Uncle Zhong looked at him and smiled, and said calmly, "You didn't call me when you entered the room just now, did you?"
Zhan Hao lowered his head and covered his face with his hands.
The dead leaf's Adam's apple rolled twice, and the veins on his forehead began to twitch violently.Uncle Zhong looked at his increasingly entangled eyes, and smiled even more happily: "I'm also an elder anyway, it shouldn't be an exaggeration for you to call me uncle like a young master?"
Zhan Hao quietly opened a finger, raised his eyes to see the expression of the dead leaf.
The dead leaf gritted her molars slightly, and her brows became more and more tightly wrinkled. Zhong Yunde watched his eyes change for a while, and finally fixed on "Patience".he was silent
