The maid said that he was not worthy of that pastry, thinking of Xiao Langjun's gentle face, there was an indescribable shame in her heart, she was so ugly, she was indeed not worthy.

He didn't have the courage to turn over the bronze mirror. It was not himself, but an ugly slave.

Ah Qing clearly knew that what was destroyed by the enemy in the battle against Xuan Gourd was not only his face, but also his self-confidence and pride.

The moon outside the window is bright and clear, and I also think of stationing in the frontier city, boarding the city, and looking at the full moon in the wilderness of the northern part of the city, it is also so white.

The Yi mansion is extremely lively these days, the servants are all preparing for the marriage between the second young lady and the prefect's son-in-law, and there are lights and festoons everywhere, only Yi Ziqian's courtyard is relatively deserted.

Yi Ziqian was enjoying his leisure, and there happened to be a few peach blossoms in his yard, which were in full bloom, dark red and light red.

He plucked the peach blossoms, and Chun'er picked them up with a shaukei.

Chun'er cherished the flowers, seeing that the peach blossoms were about to be picked by Yi Ziqian, she couldn't help but feel distressed and said, "Have you had enough, sir, the peach blossom trees are going to be bald."

Yi Ziqian clapped his hands and said, "It's not like this peach blossom tree won't bud next year, so I'll make you anxious."

Chun'er pouted and said, "I'm just in case."

Yi Ziqian said: "Go and wash it with warm water, and then soak it in salt water. I think the sun is good today, and it just happens to be placed on the fake stone to dry."

Chun'er said: "Yes." Then she went down with a dustpan full of peach blossoms.

Yi Ziqian turned around to go back to his room, when he saw a man walking towards him, he took a closer look, it turned out to be Yi He.

He asked An: "Third brother."

Seeing that his body was dyed with petals, Yi He smiled lightly and said, "This is an overkill. Picking the flowers caused petals all over his body."

Yi Ziqian patted his clothes and replied, "I'm going to use the peach blossoms to make peach blossom wine."

Yi He said: "Peach Blossom Brew, I don't know if there will be a cup for me after the brew is finished."

Yi Ziqian knew that the original owner had a good relationship with Yi Jiasanlang, so he was not so reserved, and said: "If the third brother stays for a longer time, he can drink enough."

Yi He shook his head, and said, "The academy's curriculum is tight, so we can't take long vacations."

Yi Ziqian thought for a while, and said: "If the third brother wants to drink too much, it's okay to ask the doctor to pass it to you after it's brewed."

Yi He nodded, and said with a petting smile: "Ziqian is smart, it is indeed a good idea, how did you eat the lotus cake yesterday?"

Yi Ziqian thanked him: "The lotus flower cake is delicious, crispy and soft. Thank you, third brother, for traveling thousands of miles to bring it to me."

Yi He walked a few steps towards him, and said: "There's no need to say such polite words, I haven't seen you for two years, Ziqian and I have a relationship."

Yi Ziqian was thinking about answering when he saw that Yi He was approaching him, and wanted to move away a little to keep a distance, but he didn't want Yi He to hold his shoulder with his hands, and said: "There is a piece of green on your shoulder. Petals." Yi He brushed off the petals on his shoulders and looked at him.

"Two years, Ziqian has grown more and more beautiful." Yi He stared at Yi Ziqian, from his eyebrows to his vermilion lips.

Yi Ziqian felt that this brotherly and friendly atmosphere was too strange, so he didn't dare to look him in the eye.Seeing him let go of his shoulders, he took a few steps back.

Seeing him, Yi He hurriedly made room for him, and explained: "It's because I miss you so much. When I look at other people, I feel that they are not as good as you." The words were so inexplicable that they actually gave rise to some ambiguous feelings.

He frowned, not knowing what to say, a servant girl came over and said, "Mr. Sanlang, the master has summoned you."

Yi He had no choice but to say: "Understood. Ziqian, then I'll go there first."

Yi Ziqian nodded, and was relieved to see him leave.

He thought to himself, it's good that Saburo Yi has a good relationship with him, but it's too close and weird.

Regardless of this matter, the peach blossom wine needs to be soaked in white wine after being made into peach blossom wine, and there is no high-quality white wine in the warehouse. read.

Yi Ziqian said: "Chun'er, ask someone to prepare a carriage, I want to go out of the house."

Chun'er said, "Yes." After that, he went to find the groom in the mansion.

Sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard, he saw a figure walking towards the distance holding a large bundle of firewood. After a closer look, it turned out to be Ah Qing.

"Aqing!"

Ah Qing heard Xiao Langjun calling her, and turned her head to look at the courtyard. Xiao Langjun was dressed in white, with pink peaches scattered all over the ground, stepping on the petals, walking towards her with a cold fragrance in it.

He put down the firewood, his hands and body were covered with dirt, he didn't dare to get too close, he took a step back and said, "Lang Jun, do you have anything to tell me?"

Yi Ziqian saw that he was carrying so much firewood, sweating profusely, and he always had more affairs than other servants.He also knows the rules in the mansion, newcomers will always be bullied by the steward and other servants, and often have more work to do, so he said: "I want to go to the street to buy wine today, why don't you come with me, so you can steal some free time. "

Ah Qing listened to Mr. Xiao Lang's order and nodded.

The carriage was ready outside the mansion, Chun'er was waiting at the side, saw Ah Qing who was beside Yi Ziqian, and said in surprise: "Mr. Lang, how could you take this servant out of the mansion."

Yi Ziqian said: "There are no male servants around, so I brought Ah Qing here."

Chun'er said: "Mr. Lang is fooling me again. There are still many strong male servants available in the courtyard. Why do you want to bring such a lowly person?"

Yi Ziqian knew that in the eyes of Xia people, slaves were the same class as domestic animals, so Chun'er always had a prejudice against Ah Qing, and he also understood.

But a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl always used words such as low and low, which didn't sound very pleasant to her ears. He regarded Chun'er as a younger sister, and couldn't help admonishing her: "Chun'er, you must speak properly. It's rare for me to come out of the house, so don't make each other unhappy because of your few words."

Chun'er felt aggrieved when she heard Yi Ziqian teach her a lesson for a slave.

But seeing that Lang Jun's eyes were a little sharp, he bit his lip and nodded.

Today is the vernal equinox, Minzhou is brightly lit at night, like the beauty of a woman with red makeup.

The people on the street are more crowded than when I left the house last time.It was difficult for the carriage to move an inch on the street.Chun'er and Yi Ziqian sat in the carriage, and Ah Qing followed.

He lifted the curtains of the car, looked at the dark crowd all around, and said to the groom: "Just stop at the open space on the side of the road, let us get down, there are too many people, so as not to hinder passers-by."

Chun'er helped Yi Ziqian get out of the carriage, and seeing a wine shop not far away, he wanted to go and have a look.

There were so many people on the street, and Yi Ziqian was so weak that if it wasn't for Chun'er's support, he would have been crushed and fell to the ground.

Suddenly a strong man brushed past Chun'er and bumped into her shoulder, she cried out in pain, clutched her shoulder, and let go of Yi Ziqian.In a blink of an eye, she found that her husband was surging with the crowd, and she didn't know where she was. She turned around in a hurry and called for Yi Ziqian loudly.

Yi Ziqian's side was also aimless. Following the crowd, he walked farther and farther towards the wine shop. He kicked a stone under his feet and was about to fall to the ground. down.

At this moment, a big hand wrapped around him, through his clothes, the palm of that hand was a little warm, he wrapped his arms around him, and helped him up.

Yi Ziqian stood up straight and looked into the man's eyes, which were dark and soft, like the shining river and sea under the night.

It turned out to be Ah Qing, he said: "Lang Jun, are you okay, there are too many people here."

Yi Ziqian looked around, but Chun'er was nowhere to be seen, and asked, "Hey, where's Chun'er?"

Ah Qing looked around and said, "It was probably dispersed by the crowd."

Yi Ziqian saw the dark crowd coming, and estimated that Chun'er would not be found for a while, so he said: "She can't find me, so she should go back to her house and wait." I'm about to be crushed under the feet of everyone."

Ah Qing said: "With me here, how could it be?"

Yi Ziqian said: "I'm going to have a look at that restaurant, can I get by?"

Ah Qing looked at Yi Ziqian's finger, nodded, wrapped his arms around his shoulders to protect him, and walked over there.

Yi Ziqian leaned half in the man's arms, sniffed lightly, and could smell the man's masculine smell on Ah Qing's body, mixed with sweat, but not unpleasant.

Ah Qing walked extremely slowly, as if he didn't want him to be bumped by the crowd, so he just hugged him across the crowd, while the hand on his body was warm and strong, but cautious.

This kind of tenderness made Yi Ziqian have an illusion for a moment, that the years are like water, and the time is passing by, even if the world is ups and downs, this hand will not let go.

The two of them crossed the crowd, and before reaching the entrance of the restaurant, they smelled the aroma of wine.This restaurant has a good business. The boss just greeted a guest when he saw two people coming. Judging by their clothes and accessories, they should be a pair of master and servant.

The boss smiled at Yi Ziqian and said, "Young master, what kind of wine do you want to buy?"

Yi Ziqian said: "I want to buy some jars of baijiu, the store recommends it."

"Okay, then I'll recommend our brand here, Lansheng Wine."

He asked Xiaoer to bring a wine jar, opened it and dug out a small spoonful of wine with a long spoon, and asked Yi Ziqian to taste it. Strong, with a fragrance of flowers in his mouth, he couldn't help asking the boss: "Is this wine brewed with flowers and plants?"

The boss nodded and said with a smile: "Young master will taste it, this orchid wine is made from hundreds of flowers."

Yi Ziqian handed the small spoon to Ah Qing and said, "Try it too."

Ah Qing stared at the water stains on the side of the spoon, hesitated for a moment, took a sip, and said, "Not bad."

With Ah Qing's approval, he said to the boss: "Give me a pot."

"Okay, first tie the guest officer with a rope, so that it is easy to take." The boss took the money and said.

Ah Qing carried the wine jar tied with a red string, and walked side by side with Yi Ziqian on the street.

Yi Ziqian chatted, "Ah Qing, do you sell this kind of wine in your hometown?"

Ah Qing shook her head and said, "Nothing, it's my first taste of orchid raw wine."

Yi Ziqian was a little curious, and said, "Then what is the best wine in your hometown? How does it compare to Lansheng wine?"

Ah Qing fell into memory, and said: "The best wine in my hometown is called Liuxia. When viewed under a candle lamp, the surface of the wine looks like a layer of rainbow glow, so it is named Liuxia. It doesn't feel spicy when you taste it, and the wine rolls down your throat. , Its strength will only break out, and the taste is comparable to that of Lansheng wine. But the best wine I have ever drunk is neither of these two. "

Yi Ziqian was whetted by him, and asked, "What kind of wine is that?"

Looking at the bright moon, Ah Qing seemed to recall the scene of drinking and chatting happily when he was in the army, and said: "The burning knife has a strong smell, like burning."

Yi Ziqian said: "I know this kind of wine, and I have the honor to taste it, but from my point of view, the burning knife is too intense, and it ignites for a while, unlike Lansheng, which leaves an aftertaste."

Ah Qing didn't refute after hearing this, and said: "Everyone has their own love, what Mr. Lang loves is a long stream of water, and I prefer fleeting water."

After hearing what he said, Yi Ziqian felt that it made sense, and jokingly said: "You are right, but after drinking my peach blossom wine, you will forget about that cup of burning knives."

Ah Qing rarely raised the corners of his mouth, and said with a light smile: "Mr. Xiao Lang, remember to keep a drop for me, just taste it."

Yi Ziqian also laughed and said, "There's no such thing as keeping a drop of wine."
