Son

At the end of the song, Cui Ke applauded and applauded, and Shen Xu was still in a dream.

Lin Qing nodded, touched the body of the piano with infinite love and compassion, and then said softly: "I'm showing my ugliness."

Cui Ke said: "Young master is young, but his piano skills are very good. It's a pity."

Linqing shook his head, and returned the piano to Cui Ke, "Sir, let's play a song."

Cui Ke smiled and played "Shangxie". Linqing praised: "Mr.

Cui Ke put down the qin, took off a jade pendant around his waist, took Lin Qing's hand, and put it on it, "I see that you are very attracted to each other, you keep this jade pendant as a gift from your bosom friend."

Lin Qing didn't dare to ask for it, and hurriedly declined, "No, no, how dare you ask Mr. to give up his love."

"It's not something valuable, you and I hit it off, just accept it."

Shen Xu also said: "Mr. gives it to you, so you can take it."

Linqing had no choice but to bear it, and looked carefully at the jade pendant, only to see a small snake engraved on it, but two pairs of claws were concealed, like a dragon without horns, with a proud posture, but trapped at the bottom of the river.

A trace of surprise flashed across Shen Xu's face, and then he returned to normal.Linqing hasn't seen the mystery yet, but only feels that the jade pendant is light and lovely, with a clear color, which is not rare.

Cui Ke looked at Lin Qing's careful thinking, smiled lightly, and said, "Mr. Shen, the past is gone, it's better to cherish the present."

Shen Xu was slightly stunned, and said in shame: "The late students have been educated."

Saying goodbye to Cui Ke, on the way home, Lin Qing carefully held the jade pendant that Cui Ke gave him, held it up to the sun for a while to look at it, and then took it to his lips to wipe it with a breath, Shen Xu couldn't help laughing when he saw his precious appearance, "Shut up Well, don’t miss it and fall to pieces.”

Linqing glared at him angrily, and put the jade pendant into his arms angrily.

First it was the veil given by Qin Wan, and now he got the jade pendant from Mr. Cui. The young Linqing was in a good mood because of receiving the gift, humming the tune he played just now in a low voice, and his steps were also light, jumping and jumping, Shen Xu watched from behind, only to feel that there was a snow-white rabbit spirit walking in front, she was so cute.

The day passed peacefully, but there was a quarrel before going to bed.

The reason is that Shen Xu was thinking about the fact that he took Linqing back from the Zhang family.

Shen Xu: "Strange, strange..."

Linqing: "What's strange?"

Shen Xu: "I know all the luthiers raised by brother Zhang, how come I haven't seen you?"

Linqing: "... Which one do you recognize?"

Shen Xu broke his fingers and counted for him, "Linlan, Linmeng, Linhuan, Linyun..."

Lin Qing had a dark face, "Lin Lan and Lin Meng are my senior sisters, Lin Huan and Lin Yun are my senior sisters, you are just obsessed with beauty!"

Shen Xu rubbed his nose, trying to save some face for himself, "I hear you playing the piano very familiarly, not far from your senior sisters and senior sisters." Seeing that Lin Qing was about to lose his temper, he added: "You play better than them! "

After a while, Shen Xu asked unwillingly: "But I have never seen you perform on stage before?"

The subtext is, I have never met you, so I point out you as a pet.

Linqing suppressed his anger, turned to face him, and showed him his back, "Forget it if you don't remember."

Shen Xu was still puzzled, but Lin Qing was reminded of the past.

I've never seen it before, when I was not yet finished my studies, sitting behind my senior sister, the curtain was so emotional, this person was the most dazzling among a group of dudes.It was the hot summer season when he finished his studies and first performed on the stage. On the waterside pavilion, one sang while resting on the water, and the other drank by the window. The casual eye contact made his hands tremble slightly, and he almost played the wrong notes.When the song was over, the steward grabbed him and pointed to the other side of the lake, a dozen feet away, the young man in white who threw a wine glass and wrote with a pen.

It's just these, now he is the only one left to sigh and sigh, but the instigator has completely forgotten about it.

So annoyed, Shen Xu kept asking about the events of the year.

He also wanted to ask why he begged me but didn't want me.

Shen Xu murmured from behind and fell asleep, Lin Qing felt bitter, hating this idiot for making people sad for no reason, and pretending to be innocent again.

Linqing's resentment appeared on the breakfast of the second day.

Shen Xu looked at the simple bowl of porridge on the table, and asked incredulously, "Is this breakfast?"

"Yeah." Linqing ate the noodles, not bothering to raise his eyelids.Oh, I forgot to mention that the breakfast Linqing cooked for herself was delicious noodles with an egg on top.

Shen Xu's eyes turned to stare straight at Linqing's bowl, and swallowed, "You..."

Linqing drank the last sip of soup neatly, stuffed the fried egg into his mouth, and took the bowl to the kitchen to wash.

Shen Xu was dumbfounded.

Why?Why?Where did he go wrong?

After getting along for a while, Shen Xu got a rough idea of ​​Lin Qing's temper. If this young man was angry, he would never put it on the stage and express his dissatisfaction through some small details, such as not giving him delicious food. .

Shen Xu shook her head and smiled wryly, resignedly drank the bowl of porridge, took her outfit and went to the school for class.

Lin Qing sneaked a glimpse of his disappearing figure from the kitchen window, a bit regretting if he had gone too far, but then remembered that last night he tossed and turned while the idiot was so sound asleep that he was almost snoring, and stomped his feet and gritted his teeth and said he deserved it.

A bowl of porridge is not as full as noodles, and in less than an hour, Shen Xu's stomach was empty, and he was so hungry that he was beating his drums.

Asking the students to endorse the book by themselves, Shen Xu rubbed his stomach and sat behind the podium, dumbfounding about Lin Qing's act of revenge that was similar to a prank.

Just as she was thinking, she saw Lin Qing coming, standing in the yard with a basket and waving at him, but her face was stinky.

Shen Xu got up and went over, Lin Qing angrily pushed the basket in his hand towards him, did not speak, and stared at him angrily.

Shen Xu uncovered the cloth on it, which contained steamed buns, side dishes, and a plate of fried eggs.

Shen Xu smiled, her mouth was hard and her heart was soft, she always had the mentality of a child, which was a headache, but she looked cute.

"Thank you." Shen Xu said.

Linqing turned her head away, "Hmph, I'm going to the town, so I brought you lunch in advance."

Shen Xu is funny, it's really not right

"What are you doing in town?"

"Buy clothes," Lin Qing said, "the weather is getting warmer, you and I don't have any spring clothes to wear. Wearing winter jackets all day is a joke."

Shen Xu said: "Be careful on the road, come back early."

"I want you to take care of it." Linqing snorted angrily, "I'm not a three-year-old."

Still angry with himself, Shen Xu was helpless, not knowing where the anger came from, and how to get rid of it.

Linqing went home to get the silver taels first, and then went to the town.

Although the south wind is still slightly cool, it is not suitable to wrap it in a jacket. Shen Xu is also a teacher, so he must dress decently, otherwise the students will be laughed at.

After walking for half an hour, I arrived at Lushan Town. Linqing went to the clothes shop to buy two ready-made clothes for Shen Xu, and then went to the cloth shop to pull a few feet of coarse cloth. I was going to ask Qin Wan to teach me how to cut clothes when I went back. .He didn't have to teach, and it didn't matter if he was poorly dressed.

When he was about to go back, he saw someone selling rabbits at the alley, Lin Qing only took one look, but couldn't move.

The fluffy little rabbits hugged into a ball, shivering on the straw mat, each of them looked like Xu'er who had just gone.

Linqing squatted in front of the bamboo cage, staring at the litter of rabbits, with love and pity in his eyes.

Seeing him looking at him like this, the man who sold the rabbit asked, "Young master, take one home?"

Lin Qing pursed her lips and asked in a low voice, "How many?"

The man stretched out his hand and gestured, "Eight coins. I typed it myself. It's not so cheap elsewhere."

Lin Qing was a little tempted, since Xu'er's death, he felt sentimental when he saw anything white and fluffy. Now that he saw a litter of rabbits, he couldn't help but want to take one of them back to make up for his previous regret.Besides, eight cents is really not expensive, but the money he brought out this time was just enough to buy clothes and fabrics, and he only had two copper coins left on him.

"You will still be like this tomorrow, I don't have enough money right now." Lin Qing asked.

The man shook his head, "That's hard to say, if it's sold out today, it won't be here tomorrow."

Linqing became anxious, "You can leave one for me, I'll go back to get the money now, and I'll be back soon."

The man said: "Young master, you are just joking. Money and goods are always settled, so there is no reason to reserve it." Seeing the hairpin on Linqing's head, he said again: "Young master, why don't you take the hairpin on your head and go to the pawn shop to pawn some silver taels?" , How about buying a rabbit first, then withdrawing money to redeem it when you go home?"

Linqing touched the hairpin that Shen Xu had won for him on the top of his bun, and he was very reluctant to part with it. Although he could redeem it with the silver taels when he got home, he still didn't want to leave for a while.

The man said again: "Young master, let's make a decision quickly, the pawn shop should be closed when it gets late."

Linqing gritted her teeth, her love for rabbits finally overwhelmed her entanglement, "Wait a minute, I'll go exchange money now."

He quickly ran to the pawn shop, took off the hairpin and handed it to the clerk, signed it, and rushed to the alley with the one or two pieces of silver he had exchanged for.

As soon as he got out of the pawnshop, a figure appeared out of nowhere and knocked Lin Qing to the ground. When he got up, he suddenly found that the money in his arms was gone.

Linqing shouted anxiously: "Stop! Give me back the money!"

The thief ran very fast, Lin Qing ran desperately, and could only watch him run farther and farther.He was so anxious that he was about to cry, it was the money that the hairpin exchanged for, and even the pledge note was still inside, if he couldn't find it, he couldn't get the hairpin either.

"Catch the thief! Catch the thief! Someone help me!" Linqing shouted for help, not caring about face.

The yamen servant who was on patrol heard the call and rushed over to ask, "What happened?"

Lin Qing pointed at the thief who was a black spot in the distance, and cried, "My money, my money."

The yamen servant said: "Don't panic, I will find it for you."

After saying that, there was wind under his feet, and he chased after the thief in a flash.

Linqing stood in the same place, tears streaming down his face, regretted that he should not be greedy for a while, after listening to the instigation, he exchanged the hairpin for silver, it was the first gift Shen Xu gave him, if he lost it——

Linqing stomped her feet anxiously.

Zhou Mian chased after the thief three times and twice, subdued this junior with a few tricks, threw him to the fellow yamen servants, and went back by himself to return the money to Linqing.

Linqing didn't expect to get it back, she was so excited that she burst into tears, and couldn't help but thank the young man who helped her.

Zhou Mian is twenty-eight years old this year. Seeing a young man crying so hard, he couldn't help smiling, took out his handkerchief to wipe his tears, and said with a smile, "Why are you crying like this? Could it be a girl?"

Linqing quickly wiped away his tears, and said, "Thank you, Big Brother, if you dare to ask Big Brother's name, Linqing will thank you in the future."

Zhou Mian waved his hand, "It's just within the duty, don't worry about it, my name is Zhou Mian, where did the young master come from, I have never seen it before."

Lin Qing said: "I just moved here and lives in Lushan Village. Today I went to the town to do some shopping."

"This town is usually peaceful, and there are few thieves. I think it's because of the young master's eyes that he has a wrong idea. Fortunately, there is no loss. The young master should be careful on the way back."

Linqing thanked him again, and when he said goodbye to Zhou Mian, he rushed to the alley to buy rabbits, but there was no sign of the rabbit seller.

Lin Qing anxiously asked the aunt selling sugar water next to her, "Auntie, where did the person who sold rabbits here go?"

"You said Zhao Liu, someone came over to buy his rabbit just now, and he went back after selling it."

Lin Qing was so angry that he jumped up and hated the thief who robbed him of his silver. If it wasn't for that, he would have bought the rabbit long ago.

The rabbit couldn't be bought, so Linqing had to go back to the pawn shop angrily, trying to redeem the hairpin.

Unexpectedly, the clerk said: "One tael is not enough, and I will pay ten Wen for storage."

Linqing was dumbfounded. He didn't know that he would have to pay more to redeem the item. He was thinking about reasoning, but the clerk pointed to a sign hanging on the side.

Just now he was in a hurry and didn't notice the sign, so Linqing was at a loss, so he had to honestly go home to get the money, hoping to redeem the hairpin before dark, otherwise he would have to pay an extra ten cents when he came back tomorrow.

After walking a few steps, he ran into Zhou Mian who had just saved him.

Seeing his distressed face, Zhou Mian smiled and said, "What's the matter, young master, I'm so unhappy."

Holding the clothes and fabrics she bought, Linqing didn't know where to start, and was about to wave her hands away, but her stomach growled.

Lin Qing was very embarrassed, Zhou Mian said: "I'm going to forage, young master, do you want to come with me?"

Just as Linqing wanted to repay him for finding the silver for him, he nodded, "I'll treat you to dinner, Brother Zhou, thank you for your rescue just now."

Zhou Mian didn't say yes or no, just smiled, and stretched out his hand as a gesture of please.
