The past ignites old dreams

At the beginning of the morning sun, the morning light is faint.The little wolf waited in the Chenmeng Tower early, whispering to the guards guarding the tower, explaining such and such things, how could she have thought that Qiao Ran would also wake up early in the morning, the two stared at each other, one was surprised and the other was dumbfounded Leng.

Little Wolf: "Young Master, the sound of firecrackers outside is too loud, so you can't sleep well..."

Qiao Ran more or less heard what the little wolf muttered to the guards just now. He stared straight at him, as if he hadn't really woken up, and he didn't even speak lazily, "Don't worry, I won't make such a fuss today. building."

The little wolf looked embarrassed, guilty, and felt inexplicably guilty. She put her hands behind her back and gestured for others to back off. She went up to meet Qiao Ran and dressed Qiao Ran neatly while whispering, "My lord, don't worry too much." Xin, on this occasion..."

"Little wolf, you don't have to worry, I understand."

Originally, Little Wolf had already thought about how to say it in the most euphemistic and clear way, but Qiao Ran blocked her with a single sentence just as she started.Her hands that were combing Qiao Ran's hair were stiff.

Suddenly there was a word from someone outside the door that the girl next to Lu Mingzhu had come.

With a twist of his wrist, little wolf tied up Qiao Ran's hair.Walk quickly to open the door.

Not only Lu's maids came, but also the Lord.

"Miss Lu!" The little wolf was surprised, and could only turn sideways to give Lu Mingzhu room to come in.

The sky outside was gray and not yet fully lit.Lu Mingzhu wore ordinary clothes, simple and clean.Except for a carved cage with a red-billed blue magpie inserted obliquely on the top of the hair, there are no ornaments on the whole body.

Qiao Ran got up naturally and watched her walk in.

"Miss Lu."

Lu Mingzhu smiled politely at Qiao Ran, and she told Xiao Lang and the maid behind her, "You go out first, I have something important to say to Mr. Qiao."

Little Wolf looked at Qiao Ran hesitantly. She had never liked Lu Mingzhu, so naturally she would not listen to her orders.Qiao Ran nodded to the little wolf, and then the little wolf retreated out of the house reluctantly, before closing the door, he said, "My lord calls me for something, I won't leave even a single step."

Qiao Ran said, "Okay, let's go."

Lu Mingzhu: "They all like you."

Qiao Ran made a "please" gesture and asked Lu Mingzhu to sit on the Qizimu Fangzhu.

Lu Mingzhu sat down gracefully, with a smile on her face, straight to the point, "Cui Yan didn't know that I came to see you. If he asks later, just tell me."

Qiao Ran laughed it off, "It's okay."

"Today I got married with Cui Yan, and there were all the wedding banquets in the city. The guests who came and went were either rich or noble, and no one could afford to offend them. Now that Cui Lu and his family are on the verge of death, we must be more careful with every step we take, so—"

"Miss Lu, I understand."

Lu Mingzhu gave a low "hmm" and was silent for a while before replying, "I'm sorry, we are too selfish."

"Miss Lu..." Qiao Ran's heart was twisted like a knife, and she felt uncomfortable, "Everyone is an adult, who doesn't have a lot of difficulties in his heart, and I am the one who needs to apologize. After today, you and Cui Yan are legal. Husband and wife, the name is justified, I... I shouldn't..."

"Mr. Qiao, don't be like this." Ms. Lu sighed, "We are people who can't help ourselves. Now that I have made it clear, I will feel a little more at ease, and we will not be embarrassed when we get along with each other in the future. Today I can only wrong you and stay in Chenmeng Lou, I think you don't want to see the excitement outside. My brother will arrive later, and I will ask him to come and accompany you earlier after drinking."

Qiao Ran quickly shook her hands, "Don't—"

"Haven't you and my brother always hit it off?"

"Cough...it's different today. I don't want him to waste time on me."

Lu Mingzhu was a little dejected, she said, "My elder brother once liked someone... He was so devoted, he didn't hesitate to offend the elders in the clan, and he refused to marry Sister Qianxue no matter what, it's a pity that he and that man have gone through untold hardships. There is still no good death. My brother, don’t look at him as gentle and modest as a jade, but in fact he is very persistent, and it is difficult to get out when he falls in. Qiao Ran, it’s not that I can’t tolerate you, but just as a bystander. I think it will be much easier for you to be with my brother than to be with Cui Yan."

Qiao Ran didn't know what expression to make, so she didn't speak in silence.

As if suddenly remembering something, Lu Mingzhu got up and said, "It's so early, you must not have breakfast yet, I took the liberty to disturb you. I'm leaving now."

As soon as Lu Mingzhu mentioned that he was going to leave, Little Wolf opened the door and came in, "Miss Lu, then we won't see you off."

Lu Mingzhu blinked at Qiao Ran and smiled, and was about to leave.

Qiao Ran: "Miss Lu, stop!"

Lu Mingzhu looked back, waiting for him to finish.

"I... let me put on bridal makeup for you!"

Little Wolf held on to the door frame, "Master!!!"

Lu Mingzhu was a little surprised, "Not only can you detoxify and heal wounds, but you can also make facial flowers for women?"

"In the past, work required... In short, I will make you the most beautiful bride in the world. Do you believe me?"

Lu Mingzhu had already walked back, and she said, "I believe it. Then please excuse me, Young Master Qiao."

"Wait!" Little Wolf was obviously very dissatisfied, and she pulled Qiao Ran away angrily, "Young master, you are still hungry!"

Lu Mingzhu called Xiaoyue in, "Xiaoyue, is the dessert still hot?"

Xiaoyue's fat girl was overjoyed to see Qiao Ran again, and nodded repeatedly, "Put it in a double-layer wooden food box and warm it with a Kongming bowl."

As Xiaoyue spoke, she lifted the food box onto the table, and uncovered the Longquan celadon-glazed Kongming bowl, which contained "Zhu Shixiang Huiyu Bowl Red" rice with cane molasses and wild rice.

Xiaoyue: "Actually, my young lady came here with preparations, but she was afraid that it would be too early and the son would not have eaten. She was also afraid that sister Xiaolang had already made preparations, so she didn't mention it rashly."

Little Wolf curled his lips, "You are too polite."

"It's all from my own family, little wolf..." With a trace of reproach, Qiao Ran glanced over at little wolf. Little wolf crossed his arms and turned away from looking at him. Qiao Ran smiled wryly, "Little wolf, help me drag the How about a suitcase?"

The little wolf went into the back room without saying a word.

As soon as he opened the Kongming bowl just now, Qiao Ran could smell the sweetness. He took the spoon made of thin porcelain powder and tasted a few mouthfuls against the heat and aroma.

It's too sweet!Qiao Ran took a sip of hot tea to serve the meal, and saw Lu Mingzhu's benevolent look from the corner of her eye, so she had to bite the bullet and swallowed a few more mouthfuls of "bibimbap with syrup".It's too sweet, it's so sweet that it will make you sick if you eat it again.

It just so happened that the little wolf also came out with the suitcase.Qiao Ran put down the spoon and took a few mouthfuls of Pu'er.

"Is the young master full?" Xiaoyue blinked her eyes, she couldn't believe it, this amount of food was not enough for her to fill the gaps between her teeth, let alone such delicious sugarcane rice and wild rice!

"I'm full!" Qiao Ran pushed away Kong Ming's bowl, "Actually, I've already drank a lot of crispy cheese before."

Lu Mingzhu ordered Xiaoyue to clean up the table, and then said to Qiao Ran, "Since I left Mount Tai, I felt that you lost a lot of weight when I saw you again. It's really distressing. Wild rice regulates the stomach and relieves troublesome fever. I hope I can go there too." Your depression and anger."

Qiao Ran hadn't even opened his mouth to thank him when he heard Little Wolf say quickly, "Master is very good."

He could only smile apologetically at Lu Mingzhu.

Fortunately, Lu Mingzhu is a generous person, so she didn't mind at all.

Qiao Ran took out her cosmetic bag, and spread out all the tools on the table.

Lu Mingzhu and the maids were very curious. Lu Mingzhu picked up the eyeshadow brush and looked over it over and over again, but she didn't know what it was for.

Qiao Ran took out the makeup remover wet tissue, "Can you temporarily forget the countless rules here?"

Lu Mingzhu closed her eyes, "Today can be an exception."

With her promise, Qiao Ran started by cleaning his face.

Although Lu Mingzhu looks average, her facial features are very distinctive when viewed separately. It is a face that is easy to apply makeup and can control various makeup looks.Qiao Ran had made up her mind, and calmly followed the steps.

When Qiao Ran finished putting on Lu Mingzhu's makeup, the maids were dumbfounded.

"God——" Xiaoyue clutched her heart, "Miss, you are indistinguishable from Miss Cui now."

Lu Mingzhu couldn't believe it, "So..."

Xiaoyue held up the clear and clear tung flower mirror, "Miss, look for yourself—"

Two eyebrows with moon, double pupil mirror.Fu Fen and Shi Zhu combed the clouds and skimmed the stars, and the lace and mist were full of wind and wind.Glossy and beautiful, graceful and graceful, the young girl Su'e is like the reincarnation of Luoshen.

Lu Mingzhu first leaned back in surprise and surprise, as if she was frightened by herself in the mirror, then she took the mirror and took a careful look, turning her head, lowering her eyebrows and grinning for a while, completely forgetting After repeating the virtuous behavior of a lady from a famous family, she was sure that the person in the mirror was herself.

Even the little wolf was shocked, "It's like turning decay into magic!"

Qiao Ran tapped her on the head, "Speak out! Miss Lu is very beautiful. The beauty of a person is not only reflected in the appearance, but the appearance will age, and only a kind heart will last forever."

Lu Mingzhu resumed her dignified demeanor. She stood up, crossed her hands on her left waist, put her legs together and bent her knees, and lowered her head slightly, "Mr.

After Lu Mingzhu left with her maid, Little Wolf packed her things into the suitcase, and she couldn't help asking, "My lord, why did you help her? Why did she say she wanted to bring you your heart? Did you do this?" Everything is for the second son?"

After eating such a sweet breakfast just now, Qiao Ran still feels sick to his stomach. He clutched his stomach, took a breath, and exhaled slowly.

""My fair lady, a gentleman is so good.I don't believe it myself, in fact, I would rather he and Lu Mingzhu have a good relationship for a hundred years and live in peace. "

"My lord..." The little wolf looked at Qiao Ran eagerly, feeling like he was about to cry.

There was another blast of firecrackers outside, and Qiao Ran opened the window with paper-cut grilles pasted with double happiness flowers and fish corners, and the fireworks bloomed among the clouds during the day.There is no color, only light.Qiao Ran squinted her eyes for a while, looking at the fireworks in the sky, lost her mind.

Cui Yan crossed the bridge along the promenade by the water, and had already reached the Plum Blossom Pavilion.

The wide cuffs with gold silk patterns and twigs, the dark red clothes trimmed with black swastikas are solemn and dignified, the red flame-like inner clothes are extraordinary, and the coat has a five-color thread carved double phoenix girdle. On the left and right are golden locks and white jade. Chilong ring.The originally luxurious and festive wedding dress was worn on Cui Yan's body, but lost the lingering sentimentality of the love between men and women in the world, and looked solemn and dignified like a god.

Qiao Ran hurried out from the Chenmeng Tower and headed for the Plum Blossom Pavilion.

He stopped Cui Yan, "What are you doing here today?"

Seeing the color, the guards around Cui Yan stepped back a few feet and stood outside the Plum Blossom Pavilion.

Cui Yan stared at Qiao Ran without saying a word, and suddenly pulled him into his arms.His chin rested on Qiao Ran's shoulder, and the warm breath penetrated into Qiao Ran's ears like a poison cup.

Qiao Ran felt itchy in his ears, his throat, and then his heart.Hundreds of claws scratched his heart, like insects and ants biting, "Cui Yan, I will not go out today because of your words. You also have to obey my words and never come again."

"Qiao Ran." Cui Yan hugged the person in his arms tightly, wishing to rub him into his flesh and blood, so that he would never be separated, "What should I say to make you feel better?"

Qiao Ran was imprisoned tightly, her chest was heaving, it was difficult to breathe, and her upper body bones were aching, "Let me go first, I'm in so much pain!"

Cui Yan relaxed his strength, but did not let Qiao Ran leave his embrace.Qiao Ran had no choice but to walk around his waist lazily. He leaned on Cui Yan's shoulder and sighed, "You, why are you being polite to others and always punching me? Ah? Why? "

"..." Cui Yan thought for a while, "You were ignorant before, and you couldn't become a talent if you didn't fight."

Qiao Ran: "..."

"Qiao Ran."

"Ah."

Cui Yan put one arm around his waist, and the other stuck to his back, "I have a lot to say to you, but I can't say anything."

"Even if you can say it, I don't want to hear it." Qiao Ran saw that Cui Yan was not exerting enough force, so she pushed Cui Yan away.Before Cui Yan pulled him again, he sat down on the beauty in the plum blossom pavilion, "Cui Yan, you should go. They are all waiting for you."

The lotus branches in the water have withered, and after a few more wind and snow, there are only floating and pitiful lakes.

Outside the Plum Blossom Pavilion is the Chenmeng Lake, and outside the Chenmeng Lake are tens of thousands of mountains, how many winds come and go, the moon rises and sets again, so it is ruthless, and there is nothing to worry about.

The two of them looked at each other without saying a word, and the silence was like walking through thousands of rivers and mountains, how many years of spring and autumn, the warmth of the sun and the wind and dust, and then, all of them turned into this moment of eye contact.

The one who looked away first was Cui Yan.

As soon as he turned his gaze away, Qiao Ran felt his eyes heat up and hurriedly lowered his head.

Cui Yan said, "I'm leaving."

I just wanted to take a look at him. Now that I have seen him, if I don't leave, I can't give up.

Cui Yan was about to go back the same way, but he had already turned his back.Just as he was about to take a step, Qiao Ran's strength bumped into him from behind.

Seeing that Cui Yan was about to leave, when Qiao Ran came to his senses, he was already sticking to Cui Yan's back, wrapping around Cui Yan's waist from behind.

Qiao Ran could only say, "Don't turn around, and don't look back."

Feeling Cui Yan's heartbeat, he said in a heavy nasal voice, "Cui Yan, this is the end of the matter, let's forget about the two of us."

Cui Yan didn't respond for a long time, Qiao Ran became nervous.Afraid that he would speak, but also afraid that he would keep silent.

What will he say?

Although only a few minutes passed, it seemed like centuries.Finally, Cui Yan spoke, "Qiao Ran, tell me again."

Cui Yan held Qiao Ran's hands in front of his belly, and he broke apart Qiao Ran's arms to form a hug with a little force. He turned around and pinched Qiao Ran's jaw until Qiao Ran's lips pouted in the middle. , "I want you to say it again."

Qiao Ran shook off Cui Yan's hand vigorously, angrily and sadly, "I said we'll stop here!"

"it is good."

"..."

Cui Yan agreed simply and neatly, and walked with a graceful back and a steady pace.

It's really not a word of retention, it's more ruthless, no one can match it.

Qiao Ran leaned against the pillar of the pavilion and stared blankly at the upper of her shoe.

To Cui Yan, I am just as light as a feather.Instead of letting him lose something fresh for a while and then forget it, it is better to cut through the mess when your love is still strong. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Sooner or later, things that do not belong to you will be returned.

He does not accept his affection, nor expresses his own.It's not the dignity of holding on to a sigh of relief, it's just meeting him and humbled to the dust.That's why, deliberately pretending to be indifferent, intentionally not caring, deliberately not fighting, grabbing or occupying, deliberately saying those polite and considerate words, deliberately pretending to understand the righteousness, are all fake.

But Qiao Ran, he is destined not to belong to you alone.

The romantic meaning is worn out, but love is the root of worry.

Whether romantic or affectionate, the impulse of love only exists in a moment, it is just adrenaline, dopamine, serotonin telomerase...the interaction of these biological elements will naturally fade over time.

There is no endless light years at all, it is just the illusion of cloud and rain in Wushan, and the climax erupts.For the Milky Way, the solar system is just an insignificant part. For the Earth, human evolution is just the last second of its 46 billion years. For Cui Yan, Qiao Ran, you are just a moment in his life.

I never really had you, I started to suffer the loss.

Duckweed goes with the water for half a lifetime, and nowhere in life can be ashes.

The Taofu is newly reprinted, and the beautiful woman plays the jade rhythm.Dancer Hu Xuan, the air is full of the fragrance of wintersweet.

Food and wine, delicacies from mountains and seas.The troupe played one after another.

Leaning on the pillow with cold arms, he is the only one sitting alone on the moonless New Year's Eve.Drinking tasteless cold wine, in the deep tent with dim lights and embers of incense, wearing a cold quilt to watch the year, drinking another cup by yourself.

The Qinghe Mansion is full of people, and under the witness of the elders of the two clans, the auspicious time has come for the new couple in the wedding hall.The fine music in the mansion lined up from outside the Xitang to the gate of the mansion, and the sound of gongs and drums shook the sky for a while, reverberating in most of Qinghe City.

Cui Ling, who was guarding the highland in the northwest corner alone tonight, vaguely heard the lively drum music, and after drinking several glasses of cold wine, he felt chills all over his body, and breathed out white air when he opened his mouth.

Everyone has a place tonight.

Cui Ling poured wine, but the flagon was empty.He smiled in a daze, he didn't know what he was laughing at, maybe he was laughing at himself. On New Year's Eve, the whole family was reunited, and he was the only one with nowhere to go.

Alcohol is a gut-piercing poison, and wine adds to sorrow.

Hu Qiu embraced him, and he walked to the only window in this tent with a somewhat floating pace, facing the west direction, he was still as sharp as a blade, as sharp as a sword's edge.

He is Cui Ling, the personal dark feather of Qinghe Cui's second son, the person who swore with blood that he will never leave Cui Yan from life to death.

The phoenix flute and the harp bounce off the pipa, sometimes lingering and sometimes impassioned.Palace lanterns all over the street illuminate this ancient city like daylight.The fireworks are brilliant, the east wind blows at night, BMW car carvings, people come and go, and laughter is bubbly.

Here in the Xitang, there is an American-made marriage letter on silk spread out on the jade case. The four seal characters write "knot and hair concentricity".Fill in the birth date and family information of the two couples in the middle. On the right side, there is a sentence "If you are better than your eyes, why die?"

The bridesmaid praised heaven and earth.The elders of the two major families were invited to receive three worships, and then the eldest son of the Cui family, Cui Mo, and the young master of the Lu family, Lu Wenyu, were invited to sit in the hall. The new couple saluted and sent them to the bridal chamber.

Li Cheng.

Cui Lu got married and formed a party member, which was a foregone conclusion.

The pear blossoms outside the west window are cold and gorgeous, with the same color as the plum blossoms, and the shadows are still pitiful. The white oil lotus lanterns on the flower branches suddenly dimmed for a moment and then brightened again.

"Where did you ever think that on New Year's Eve, people would come from thousands of miles away?" Cui Ling came out through the window, and at the same time when he landed, he stabbed out the dragon tongue spear made of iron and copper, "Cui Ling will definitely accompany you!"

The gun is like a swimming dragon, and the dragon's tongue is like a flame, stirring up the airflow and bringing up the wind veins, making ghosts and wolves howl wherever it goes.

Thousands of flowers and trees, stars like rain, reflecting the light of blood.

While attacking, Suzaku said, "Cui Ling, you don't want to live until next year!"

Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku, Xuanwu.

The top four masters are all together.

Four people move together!Four swords swung!Siege from all directions!

Fate is dying with each year, and body is forgotten with the world.There is no recovery to kill Su Meng.Lighting up the night is still young.

Some people get drunk at night, some stand alone on Yao steps, some are still climbing mountains, and some people never come back.

The author has something to say: 1. Kongming Bowl: A kind of heat-preserving tableware in ancient times.It is made of two bowls glued up and down. The middle of the two bowls is left empty. There is a round hole in the bottom of the outer bowl. The hole in the bottom of the outer bowl is used to allow boiling water to enter the interlayer to keep the food in the bowl warm. Therefore, it is also called a warm bowl. .People call it "Kong Ming Bowl" because of this "hole".

2. Zhu Shixiang Huiyu Bowl Red: It comes from the "Gift of Cherries to the Court Scholars (under Qixia)" written by Han Xun in the Tang Dynasty.The original sentence is "cane pulp is cold from the silver cup, and Zhu Shixiang shines red in the jade bowl."

3. Rice with sugarcane pulp and wild rice: from "Spring Passes He Sui Yuanwai Medicine Garden", author Wang Wei. "Rice with sugarcane pulp and wild rice, bean sauce and sunflower soup. I know the meaning of gardening, and Yuling is not self-deprecating." It refers to a kind of food in the Tang Dynasty.Wild rice is wild rice.The fruit is like rice, which is very rare.

4. Beauty leaning: It is a wooden building with a stool on the bottom and a railing on the top. The elegant and graceful curve design conforms to the outline of the human body, and it is very comfortable to sit on.Usually built on the water side of the cloister or pavilion fence, in addition to resting, it also has the fun of reflecting on the Lingbo.

5. Life is dying with the year: Wen Tianxiang of the Southern Song Dynasty "New Year's Eve"
