Chapter 20 Jing Li
Looking at the gold and silver jewelry piled up all over the house, I calmly asked Yun Ying to ask Xiao Qi to find a way to transport them to Junjin Villa without anyone noticing, where they were needed most.
Is this compensation for Xie Weiying? I randomly selected a few pieces to look at carefully. They are really generous! Each piece is priceless, enough for Xiaoqi to continue to expand its scale. However, the sacrifice of a woman in this era has changed a lot.
Is that all that comes? It’s really ridiculous...
I planted a few hibiscus trees in the backyard. My bun was a little messy. I lifted up my skirt and stuffed it around my waist. There was a little bit of yellow soil on my face, hands, and cloth shoes. I wiped it with the back of my hand.
With sweat stains on his forehead, he walked back with his tools. With a casual glance, he saw that as usual, Huan Wen was casually leaning against the wall and smiling cynically at me. It didn't take a guess to know that he was here for a meal.
Alas, the devil boy has been gone for a long time. I don’t know if he misses my cooking or if he listens to my words and takes good care of himself...
Old guy, I miss you very much.
The beautiful sister is also gone.
People around me are leaving one by one, does it mean that I will leave too... Even though here, I have nowhere to go, no home...
I looked at the spring scenery in the garden, the lush flowers and plants, and the brilliant colors, but I couldn't bring myself to enjoy it. I glanced at Huan Wen lazily, then lowered my head and continued walking listlessly.
Seeing that I looked tired and my eyes were empty, Huan Wen flew down, landed steadily in front of me, and stood still. He took out a brocade handkerchief from his lapel and carefully wiped off the mud on my face and the dense stains on my forehead.
There were tiny beads of sweat. His expression was serious, as if he was treating a rare treasure.
I just stood there obediently and stared at him seriously.
This boy who grew up with me has grown up unknowingly. He already has a man's broad back, mature eyebrows, and strong lines... Although I never want to admit it, he is really a generation that will be famous all over the world in the future.
The careerist Huan Wen... Although I know very little about the history of Jin, I still know about the famous and high-spirited young heroes...
And the young man Huan Wen in front of me now is the one I know.
I just want to pretend to be ignorant and live my life in an ordinary way, but I always have no control over the future.
What General Anxi, what Jingzhou Governor... have nothing to do with me...
Thinking of this, I smiled at Huan Wen, and he smiled at me. He is still the playboy Huan Wen. I don't know why he will change in the future, but I am still grateful for his kindness to me over the years.
He frowned slightly and tightened the jade jade hidden in his sleeve. Until his nails dug into the flesh of his palm, he still didn't feel the pain...
He pursed his lower lip, and his mind couldn't help but turn to the day when he woke up drunk -
"Well..." I groaned uncomfortably. The hangover was so painful. I opened my eyelids that were like glue. I saw the beautiful sister with a haggard face, but she looked at me with a smile in her eyes.
He also held an exquisite celadon bowl.
"Are you awake?" She came over to help me get up, "You have a headache, come on, drink some hangover soup."
"Well, it hurts... Sister Beauty, you are so good to me!" I sleepily snuggled into her arms, unwilling to get up.
She waited patiently for me to come to my senses, and then blew on me gently to warm it up before feeding me a drink. I closed my eyes and enjoyed it.
After a long time, I finally struggled to get up and stretched out comfortably. Every day when I get up, I see my beautiful sister. I feel so refreshed!
"Xiao Jin, you have to take good care of yourself in the future. I...have to leave." The beautiful sister's faint voice suddenly came.
"Let's go?!" I turned around and looked at her in surprise, "Where are you going?"
She didn't answer, she just chuckled and said, "Whether you believe it or not, Xiaojin, I love you."
My face turned pale, my head was buzzing, and I was dumbfounded. I forced a weak smile and said, "Sister Beauty, you are joking with Xiaojin. Hey, I have told you this joke many times."
She smiled brightly and looked at me steadily. After a long time, she came over, pressed a kiss on my cold lips, and whispered: "I don't care, I don't care about anything."
My heart suffocated, I clenched the corners of my clothes tightly, suppressing the tears that were about to burst into my eyes, I said lightly: "Sister, you can't like me, and I'm not good enough for you. You can like my elder brother, and you can like anyone in the world who is worthy of you.
The man who falls in love with you cannot like me. In this world, I will not and cannot like anyone."
I can't remember what the beautiful sister said to me. I only remember that my mind was blank. I looked at her blankly and saw her sad and hopeless look, as well as her indifferent and desolate breath floating around.
I stumbled away, my mind still stubbornly echoing the beautiful sister's words just now: "Jin, I know you are a woman. But I still love you. Today is the last time, goodbye, Xiao Jin.
My descendants will set foot on this place again to build a country for you."
Her smile was as beautiful as the first time we met, radiant and boundless. But a tear escaped from the corner of her eye and fell into the palm of my hand. It was so hot that it almost left an unforgettable trace in my heart.
.The face with tears in its eyes, but a smile suddenly bloomed at the corners of its mouth. The withered eyes were full of obsession, pity, lovesickness, pain, and hope. It made me feel like I had fallen into a maze and couldn't climb out.
I had no choice but to run away, even though I knew that after this separation, we would be so far away from each other.
My favorite beautiful sister will also abandon me.
Just like I said with a chuckle to her with tears in my eyes: "Sister, you are gone too. No one in this world will love and pity me as much as you do."
But, sister, I'm sorry. I'm sorry...
"Ying'er, are you like this?"
"Ah?!" I looked at him confused, "Brother Wen, what's wrong? Isn't the food delicious?"
"Ying'er, have you been working too hard recently? Even with a handsome man like me in front of you, you will be distracted."
I pulled my stiff lips and said with a smile: "It's okay, Brother Wen."
I picked up the chopsticks and tried my best to pick up the food for him, "Eat more, these are your favorites: green pepper bamboo fungus, salt and pepper shrimp, and Laohuo soup."
I lowered my head and murmured: "I may never be able to eat it again in the future."
"What?" He raised his head and looked at me doubtfully.
"Oh, oh, it's okay, it's okay. Eat it quickly. Otherwise it will get cold."
He put down the bowl, crossed his arms, and looked at me without saying a word: "Tell me, is that all? You have been distracted several times today. You are not like you at all."
I raised my head and smiled sadly at him.
He covered my face with his hands in disgust, my smile said, "Ying'er, don't smile, it's too hard to look at." I couldn't see his expression, but I smelled the faint fragrance of his palms and felt it.
The warm breath came one after another.
I took a deep breath and said, "Brother Wen, Ying'er may leave for a while in the future, so don't miss the food I cooked. I'm afraid I won't have time to cook it for you."
His expression dimmed instantly. It turned out that I was not the only one pretending to be nonchalant.
"I heard about it. An ran to Hongdianhuashu and cried all day that day. Ying'er, tell me, is this your choice?"
"Yes." I looked at him calmly.
"Then, you have to eat well, and then go on eating. You made a great meal today." He greeted me to eat with a normal expression, but I could clearly see that his hands were shaking slightly.
"Brother Wen, I owe you, please forget about Ying'er."
"Damn girl, what are you talking about?" He leaned over and roughly rubbed my hair, "Who would like a washboard like you? Eat."
Pengjulou.
There was a bustle of people coming and going, and the people coming in and out were all rich young men in rich clothes, as well as handsome young people with elegant literary talents.
"Brother Sima, I'm here."
I walked straight towards him, and when I got closer, I realized that there was a handsome man wearing a blue-grey brocade robe beside him, with a pair of eyes as dark as glass, shining and tall, free and easy.
A pair of eyes as dark as glass were looking at me curiously. I thought about those very familiar eyes for a long time, and finally, with great difficulty, I remembered that they were the ones who stood beside me when my third brother took me to Hongdianhuashu that day.
The man who had been looking at me carefully recently seemed to be called Director Wang. I calmed down, he would never know who I was, calmly walked over and sat down next to Brother Sima.
"Xiao Jin, this is Director Wang, my best friend. Today he must come with me to meet your lovely brother."
"Master An, I have long admired your great name."
I looked at him indifferently and said calmly: "To each other. Sir, you have a great surname, and everyone in Jiankang knows it."
As soon as we met, I completely ignored the existence of Shen Qing and Director Wang. I kept complaining to Brother Sima that the beautiful sister left without any warning. In the end, I felt really wronged.
Unexpectedly, he just replied calmly: "Second sister has her own things to do, and she has no choice."
I'm angry. These people are really cold and heartless.
A meal is tasteless. If anyone wants to try being stared at by a man from the beginning to the end, you will feel that the delicacies have changed.
I could see that Brother Sima admired him. I knew that there was a very famous man named Director Wang in history, who eventually became a famous prime minister. Could it be him?! After thinking about it, I looked up at him in surprise after taking a bite of the dish.
, I was out of breath for a moment and almost choked. Fortunately, someone thoughtfully handed me a glass of water. When I saw it, it was my eldest brother.
He smiled gently at me and said, "Slow down."
Unfortunately, I lost my mind again.
I was in a daze after eating that meal, until when I was leaving, Director Wang suddenly leaned into my ear and said coolly: "Mr. An, I don't know why, but I always feel like you are a person..."
I was stunned and broke into a cold sweat for a moment. But I still smiled lightly at him and said lightly: "Young Master Wang, you may have made a mistake. There has always been only one An Jin."
Sima Langxie also smiled lightly and said: "My An Jin has always been unparalleled in the world."
I didn't notice that he was talking about my An Jin.
Director Wang's expression changed slightly.
Return to Qulanyuan.
Inexplicably, I walked to the room where the devil boy used to live. I lingered in the room for a long time, sighed, and felt bored. I turned to leave, but stepped on a piece of paper by the door. I thought maybe the devil boy had written it casually and forgot to throw it away.
It was placed on the table and was blown by the cold wind and fell to the ground.
Picking up the paper on the ground, it read clearly: If love has God's will, I will wait for you all my life.
