Republic of China drama

"Knock knock knock..."

The original quiet atmosphere was broken by the knock on the door, and Jiang Wanwan subconsciously trembled.Avoiding the touch of Lu Qingying's fingers.

When she found out that she avoided it, she wished she could slap herself, and it seemed deliberate to slap her back...

She sighed silently.

The Gu family has its own doctor, who lives not far from the Gu residence for the convenience of diagnosis.Tonight, the maid was too urgent, so he put on his clothes and came with the medicine box.

Lu Qingying pointed at the girl: "Take a look at her throat, she has been singing for three hours, is there any serious problem?"

"Yes."

After carefully examining Jiang Wanwan, the doctor said: "The vocal cords are damaged, but not to a great extent. Try to talk as little as possible within half a month, avoid spicy tobacco and alcohol, and eat more throat-moistening food, and you should be able to recover."

The maid was very grateful for sending the doctor out, brought the boiled water, and warmed it up.

This result was expected, Jiang Wanwan picked up the porcelain cup, took a sip quietly, and put it away.Then he leaned over to Lu Qingying's side.

At this time, I really should take the opportunity to say something. Miss San would definitely say a lot of things if she wanted to comfort her...

It's a pity that she can't pronounce half a syllable now, and she can't ask questions to find topics, and she can't answer any questions.

Lu Qingying didn't notice any of this, she just raised her hand and gently smoothed the girl's hair.

"Now you can rest assured."

The jet-black hair brushed against the fingertips, which was more comfortable than rubbing against those silks and satins.

Jiang Wanwan only communicated with paper and pen, nodding and shaking her head. Now that Gu Qingying is sitting on the kang, she is half leaning on Gu Qingying, unable to reach the paper and pen, and can only express her thoughts by moving her head...

Stupid, pitiful.

"what happened?"

Seeing that she was staring at him in a daze, Lu Qingying asked.

But his eyes fell on the girl's face, and he couldn't help but look at the girl's wet, pink lips with a little light...

What is that smell?The first flowers in the garden, the first rays of light in the morning, or the cleanest morning dew that tea drinkers are looking for?

She couldn't help but want to touch it, but suddenly withdrew her hand in the dark. (1)

Jiang Wanwan shook her head, leaned on Gu Qingying, just smiled.

Living in the same place, she and Lvxiu are so stupid that they resemble each other.Luxiu is greedy for excitement, but she is greedy for the day and night staying with Lu Qingying.

If it can be safe and secure for a day and night, it should be better than dying without regrets.

"Remember to smile more in the future," Gu Qingying said, "It looks good when you smile."

Maybe it was because Jiang Wanwan didn't make a sound all this time, that's why she had the illusion that Lu Qingying was very gentle...

With such a rare opportunity, she suddenly wanted to say something unscrupulously. She had been writing Gabi for a long time, but she forgot that there was such a thing as pinyin.

Just as she was about to reach for a pen and paper, Gu Qingying already understood what she wanted to do, so she handed it to her.

It was much more convenient now, Jiang Wanwan held the pen, concentrated on it, and wrote in a swish.

Lu Qingying looked down at the girl's fingers, which were thinner and skinnier than her own.

Holding a small person, even the hands are small.

The blank paper was handed over again, and she wrote pinyin little by little, like a child who hasn't grown up yet.

"I think you're pretty too," the girl wrote, "Smiling or not."

Gu Qingying choked.

Jiang Wanwan thought she didn't spell it out, after all, she was not proficient in pinyin, so it would be bad if she made any jokes.She reached out to grab the paper, but was held down by Lu Qingying.

"I understand." Lu Qingying smiled lightly, her perfect and generous eyebrows were bent upwards, so the room seemed brighter. "Praise me, do you still want to take it back?"

Jiang Wanwan shook her head vigorously.

I don't want to take it back.

Lu Qingying rubbed the paper, not knowing what to say.

The paper was crumpled, and she came back to herself in a trance, realizing that she wanted to speak.

"Forget it," she handed the paper back, "Is there anything you want to say?"

Jiang Wanwan wrote: "The birthday banquet outside, will something happen if you leave like this?"

Lu Qingying thought for a moment.

"No, my elder brother told me to take care of it. He has a lot of ideas, so nothing will happen."

Jiang Wanwan thought of just now, Gu Qingying said that when she was young, her elder brother protected her, so she was not abused and bullied, and now she said: "He must be a very good person, right?"

Lu Qingying did not hesitate: "He is the one who is most like my mother. He has a good temper and sees things clearly. It's not just me, he treats all siblings the same."

Jiang Wan nodded wanly, as if she had always been like this.

"Why?" Lu Qingying raised the end of the sentence slightly, but his expression was not raised, "Are you very interested in my elder brother?"

How can you wrong someone for no reason?

The little green snake was really in a hurry, like a snake entangled with the third lady, stretched out her hand and wobbled to snatch the paper, and when she snatched it, she picked up the pen and wrote.

"I'm not that interested in them." The little green snake hurriedly showed her.

"Hmm..." Lu Qingying was noncommittal, and changed her voice, "Then what kind of interest do you have in me?"

Jiang Wanwan's heart beat suddenly and violently.

She held the paper tightly, the knuckles of the pen turned white, and she dared not write. The slightly curved tip of the pen kept pressing on the paper, swimming into a black pool.

His face was too red to see.

Lu Qingying let out a breath, and there seemed to be a torrent of heat where her body was attached to the girl: "I was wrong, I shouldn't mention this, you have the right to hear everything, okay?"

Jiang Wanwan nodded obediently.

After staying by Miss San's side for a long time, it's normal for her to be disappointed and rejected. She is flattered by her kind words, but the opposite is normal.

"I'm going out to smoke a cigarette." Gu Qingying said.

She took care of Youlin's terminal illness two days ago, and made up her mind to quit smoking, so she could live for another two years and see the beautiful scenery in the world.

At any rate, he kept on keeping on until today, but who would have thought that all his previous efforts would come to naught.

Just as he was about to move, someone grabbed his wrist.

The girl was really afraid that she would leave, one limp hand pressed her wrist, and the other hand wrote pinyin.

Originally, the characters were messed up and down, but this urgency made it even more scribbled and unsightly.

"Don't worry." Lu Qingying whispered in her ear, "I'll wait for you to finish writing."

The warm breath was all sprinkled behind the ears, and there was also the pleasant fragrance of Lu Qingying's body, Jiang Wanwan shook her hand, and almost threw the pen out.

Reluctantly, I finally wrote it: "Miss San, can you try to smoke less? It's not healthy."

Even the words written are obedient.

It's hard to go out, and it's even worse to stay here.

Lu Qingying rubbed the girl's head: "Then stop smoking, I'm going out for a while."

Jiang Wanwan didn't let go of her, her watery eyes were still staring at her.

Lu Qingying understood what she meant, she wanted to ask if she would come back after leaving.

They were silent for a while, and finally gave an ambiguous answer: "If you are sleepy, go to sleep first, and don't wait for me deliberately."

Jiang Wanwan nodded in frustration.

Probably not coming back...

"Remember to drink up the water before going to bed. I will instruct the kitchen to steam pears for you tomorrow morning." Gu Qingying finally instructed.

......

After leaving the wing room door, Gu Qingying let out a long sigh of relief.

The room is too stuffy, the people are stuffy, and the heart is stuffy.

Although there are a few obtrusive ones still kneeling below.

She told the servant girl: "These people, beat them up first, don't hit too hard, then they are willing to go to the manor to do farm work, and if they don't want to, they can be sent out, as long as they are in Gu's house in the future, don't let me see them." .”

The servant girl answered respectfully: "Yes."

"Wait." Lu Qingying changed her mind, "Go to a place where no one is around, and don't let this side hear you."

Don't ask Jiang Wanwan to hear it.

The servant girl replied, "Yes, Third Miss."

Really bewitched.

She was so depressed that she had to come out, all because she blurted out the phrase "Then what kind of interest are you in me" to Jiang Wanwan.

It wasn't something she would say, and it wasn't a question she wanted to know.

But she really just asked.Really, there is a sudden glimmer of expectation for the answer.

What are you looking forward to?

She never lacked fanatical followers, and Jiang Wanwan's affection written in her eyes didn't need to be asked much.

Before the birthday banquet, she had some signs of losing control in the study. At that time, she was still able to deceive herself and others, but now she can no longer.

Shouldn't...

Was she really moved?

Lu Qingying touched her body irritably, there was no cigarette, not even a lighter.

She knew she would be looking for cigarettes, so she threw them away long ago, and she couldn't find any unless she borrowed them.

The night is so dark, in the huge house, except for the maid who bowed her head and said yes, she is the only one left here.

Lu Qingying adjusted the cheongsam, and sat directly on the steps, feeling cold.

It looked ugly, but she wanted to do it.

She suddenly remembered that when she was a child in school, she came first in the exams. In the end, the old gentleman praised a group of students, who were talented and bright, and they were good seedlings. Only when it came to her, he used the word "hard work".

A little older, she came into contact with a word called "strict self-discipline", only to find that it is really clear to use it to describe herself.

Her rules and habits have been piled up day after day until now.

The disadvantage is that it is too rigid.

In order not to give herself a chance to touch cigarettes, she threw away all the cigarettes.Like, in order not to indulge herself in love, so she avoided everyone. (2)

One day, all these will be in vain.

What's so good about that little green snake?

There are many talented people in this world, there are a lot of popular singers in Tsing Yi, there are also countless cultural people who came from poor families, and there are more people with good tempers who like her.

However, these things are put together, spelling out Jiang Wanwan like pinyin, how can a frown and a smile make her vacillate?

What's more, Lu Qingying no longer dared to think about the flirtatious words she said to Jiang Wanwan.

It's really a horrible situation.

"Three sisters."

Hearing the sound, Lu Qingying looked up in a daze, and smiled when he saw the person coming.

It's Gu Tingtao.

"Brother," Lu Qingying said, "is the birthday banquet over?"

"En." The moonlight was like water, and Gu Tingtao's facial features were tough, adding a little gentleness that was rarely seen under the moonlight.

He came over and sat down next to Lu Qingying.

If people in the army knew that Chief Gu was informal and took the steps with his sister, they would probably die of amazement.

Their brothers and sisters all have the same little temperament, which is something shared in the bones and can never be erased.

He cared: "Is the person you brought back okay?"

"It's fine now." Gu Qingying didn't want to talk about Jiang Wanwan's topic, "Father, how did you arrange it?"

"I made an excuse at random, saying that you are not feeling well, so I left first." Gu Tingtao teased, "Maybe you have to pretend to be sick for two days."

"Brother..." Lu Qingying was silent for a while, "I was thinking about my second sister just now."

Gu Tingtao listened, his heart tightened.

In seven years, this was the first time that Gu Qingying mentioned Gu Minghe to him.

He knew she would ask and ask.Sooner or later.

"You were in the army at that time, but you were closer than me after all." Lu Qingying looked at Gu Tingtao, with something unclear in his eyes, "What do you know?"

In her eyes, pain, regret, pleading, everything.

"Third sister...you have to ask yourself first," Gu Tingtao paused for a long time before saying, "Are you really ready to listen?"

Lu Qingying lowered her head and did not speak.

Gu Tingtao understood. Judging by her reaction, even if she answered that she wanted to know, he would not repeat the process tonight.Because it is too cruel.

"How do you treat that little actor?" Gu Tingtao changed the subject, "Seeing how you came in a hurry, it's not like you usually are."

"I..." Lu Qing's bulging ball wanted to refute, but he was discouraged, "Why are you asking the right thing?"

"Brother is not a pedantic person, and I have seen many of them, Qingying, do you really like women?" Gu Tingtao said bluntly.

For the previous question, he asked Lu Qingying if she was really ready to listen to the answer. She was still hesitant, but she knew this very well.

"Yes," she said.

"Like her?" Gu Tingtao pointed to the wing room where Jiang Wanwan stayed.

"...I don't know." Lu Qingying said frankly, "Maybe a little, but it's not clear enough, nor deep enough."

"What is clear and what is profound?" Gu Tingtao asked back.

Lu Qingying looked evasive: "I don't know."

"You know..." Gu Tingtao said, "What is the last message the second sister left to the maid? About you."

"Brother," Lu Qingying interrupted him hastily, "Stop talking about it. I just want to find out who did the second sister's matter. I don't have any thoughts about anything else. It was in the past and it is now."

"Actually, in Minghe's time, life and death have not made much difference to her." Gu Tingtao sighed deeply, "Investigate to the end, find out who did it, it has long been meaningless."

He never bluffs or makes up nonsense to deceive people.

Having said that, there must be some truth to it.

"But..." Lu Qingying said softly, "This is the only thing I can do for her."

When she came back from overseas, the person had disappeared without a trace, as if this person never existed.

However, how could Gu Minghe never exist?

"The only thing you can do for her," Gu Tingtao looked at her and overturned her concept, "is not to pursue it persistently, but to live well."

Not "alive", but "live well".

Adding embellishments, changing the body, from the simplest thing to the hardest thing.

"En." Lu Qingying responded indiscriminately, even though she couldn't understand what Gu Tingtao said at the moment.

Gu Tingtao stretched out his hand, stayed in the air for a few seconds, landed, and patted Lu Qingying's shoulder.

"Third sister, remember, if anything happens in the future, I will still be there."
