Painter

Bai Qian could no longer remember the last words Jingxi said to him.Several months passed, and when I looked back, I realized that after I saw Yuanli and entered the tunnel, the two of them never had a conversation.

The impression was too vague, Bai Qian remembered that he apologized very seriously, and didn't deliberately remember what he said, but Bai Qian knew that it was a very long confession.

Later, a series of incidents occurred, Jingxi suddenly returned to her original introverted and icy state, and Bai Qian pushed this matter back until she completely forgot about it.

Or do it on purpose.In short, when he saw Jingxi standing in front of him, Bai Qian remembered, oh yes, I originally wanted to talk to him.

Jingxi still had a sullen face, the little stone was hurt by his grasp, twisted twice but couldn't break free, so she looked up at him tearfully: "Are you going to tie me up again?"

At this time, Yuan Li also saw the comer clearly. After being shocked, he quickly withdrew his hands and withdrew to stand beside Bai Qian.Jingxi also let go of the small stone, and took a step back by pulling his upper arm.

Xiao Shitou was particularly aggrieved, and looked at Jingxi pitifully: "I won't give Bai Qian anything to eat!"

Jingxi didn't speak, and didn't let go, just stood there.Yuan Li's aura was not as gentle as usual, and his tone of voice dropped a bit: "Why are you here?"

Jingxi pulled Xiao Shitou and sat down opposite the two, took a cup of tea and handed it to Xiao Shitou: "He is coming."

It means that Xiao Shitou is going to look for Bai Qian, so he supervises all the way?

Yuan Li shook his head: "I'm not talking about that, where is the old man now?"

Jingxi poured the second cup, heard that the movements of his hands paused, and then returned to normal: "I don't know."

Yuanli's nerves relaxed a little, he got up and walked behind Jingxi.Jingxi turned her head, only to realize that she was busy protecting Xiaoshishi, and forgot Baiqian's wheelchair.

No one spoke anymore, Jingxi drank tea with her head depressed, Xiao Shitou just looked at Bai Qian pitifully, but he didn't dare to move in his seat.Bai Qian asked the boy to serve a few plates of dim sum, Xiao Shitou stopped his grievances, squinted his eyes and lay down on the table to wait.

Yuan Li pushed the wheelchair back, before Bai Qian thought about what to say.

"You left the lotus wine and ran back and forth across a big city?"

Jingxi let out a "hmm", and then she seemed to realize that she was too cold and added, "It's okay."

Bai Qian didn't know what to say.The first person he met in Huaiyuan was Yuanli, but the one he spent the longest time with was Jingxi.But Jingxi, with a sullen head, could never figure out what he was thinking.

From Bai Qian's point of view, this man was really fickle.Not to mention his original self, he couldn't figure out what happened before and after that strange forest.

At first it was a serious confession, but suddenly it turned dark again, and there was not even a word.

Yuan Li sat down beside Bai Qian, the three adults didn't speak, Xiao Shitou glanced at Bai Qian, took a sip of snacks, drank a sip of tea, always smiling.As the sky gradually darkened, people in the teahouse left one after another.When the lights came on, the surroundings became quiet.

The young man cleaned up the tables and chairs, wiped the tables and asked, "Aren't you going to visit the flower market! This will start soon!"

Originally, Yuan Li wanted to visit the flower market with Bai Qian, but when Jing Xi suddenly appeared, he just wanted to bring Bai Qian back as soon as possible.Unexpectedly, when the boy mentioned it, Bai Qian became interested, and asked carefully, "What is a flower market? A flower seller?"

The young man grinned, "Isn't the uncle a native of Fanxi? Isn't this flower market just for flower sellers! But our flower market today is not unusual for flower sellers."

Bai Qian thought that there must be some local customs on the night of Qixi Festival. He has never celebrated Qixi Festival and Valentine's Day in the 21st century, but he has seen it.It's just that I don't know what it's like to spend the Qixi Festival in Huaiyuan in another world.

The boy was about to leave after wiping the table, Bai Qian stopped him: "Then where is the flower market?"

The boy was still grinning, and pointed at the door of the teahouse casually: "Out of this door, there are everywhere!"

Yuan Li caught a glimpse of Jing Xi's expression brightening from the corner of his eye, and cried out inwardly.The servant still pulled Bai Qian to make an introduction, Yuan Li frowned and asked Bai Qian, "Are you going?"

Bai Qian was a little embarrassed: "It's rare to meet him once, so it's a fresh look."

Xiaoshi stuffed his mouth with dessert, and there were still a lot of Qiaoguo crumbs on his face. He looked up at Jingxi with his small face: "Can I go out to play?"

Jingxi nodded: "Don't run around, or I'll tie you up."

Xiao Shitou nodded hurriedly, clapping his hands while promising: "No, no, I'm not going anywhere."

Saying this like it was a sure thing, Yuan Li reluctantly persuaded Bai Qian: "There are bound to be a lot of people on the street during the holidays. You may not even be able to get in if you are in a wheelchair."

This made sense, Bai Qian looked at the wheelchair beside him, even though it was much lighter than the original wooden wheelchair, it was still difficult to squeeze in the crowd.

When the young man heard Yuan Li's words, he turned around in surprise, "Could it be that you are Ning Baiqian, Mr. Ning?"

It turned out that I was famous for my disability...

Bai Qian nodded with a good temper.

The servant was even more surprised: "Then why isn't Ms. Mu here on this begging festival?" After he finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something, slapped his forehead, and said with a wicked smile: "Ms. Mu must be selling flowers." 'Come on! They are all about to get married, and they are still playing with this little idea!"

Bai Qian was taken aback by what he said, and didn't understand at all.Yuan Li didn't give him time to think, squatting in front of him: "I'll carry you back, it may not be crowded outside. The wheelchair is left first, come and pick it up tomorrow."

Bai Qian glanced at the door regretfully, but he was sitting too far away, only seeing a sliver of night.Leaning down on the ground, Bai Qian smiled at Jing Xi: "If Shitou wants to play, you can only take him there. I walked for a while at noon, and I can't walk by myself now. I always let Big Brother Yuan play." Carrying it is too hard."

Jing Xi stared in this direction, but she was looking at Yuan Li, and nodded after a while: "Let's go back together."

Yuan Li stood up, still smiling gently, but he couldn't tell how much emotion he was hiding when he met Jing Xi's eyes: "Then, Bai Qian's wheelchair is bothering you."

Seeing that there was nothing to play, Xiao Shitou sniffled and pretended to cry, but found that no one was paying attention to him, so he yawned and squinted his eyes, feeling sleepy.Jingxi picked him up with one arm and put him on Baiqian's wheelchair.Little Shitou found a comfortable position, nestled in and closed his eyes to prepare for sleep.

Several people were about to leave the teahouse, when suddenly someone rushed in, bringing a burst of aroma.Jingxi's hand held the waist measuring knife first, but the man stood still a few steps away, his voice was as crisp as a yellow warbler, and his tone was light and joyful: "Anyone, do you want to buy a flower?"

Bai Qian glanced sideways and saw a petite woman in a lake green coat.There is a small flower basket on the left arm, and a hosta flower is picked out from the flower basket with the right hand and placed on the chest.This girl has a bit of agility in her gestures, but she has a knitted hat on her head, and a layer of tulle hangs down from the front, completely covering her face.But this has no effect at all, through the flowing veil, Bai Qian seems to be able to imagine her smiling face.

The girl asked repeatedly: "Master, do you want to buy a flower?"

Jingxi's knife was out of its sheath, revealing a cold light.The girl covered her mouth and nose through the veil, stepped back with small steps, and said with a coquettish smile: "This young man is very vicious, I won't betray you."

Yuan Li also took two steps back, fearing that the person who appeared suddenly would hurt Bai Qian: "My family does not lack these two flowers, the girl should find someone else!"

The girl held the flower and looked Bai Qian up and down: "People say that Miss Mu has found a painter who is not good at it, and it must be you, my son. Then I won't sell you my flowers. This one Gentleman with kind eyes, do you want to buy a flower?"

Bai Qian was confused by this scene, Jing Xi seemed to understand, but she was still very tense.Only the young man hid aside, looking at Yuan Li enviously, wishing he could grab the girl's flowers.

Yuan Li took another step back, the girl stomped her feet lightly and said angrily, "Forget it, you unreasonable fool."

Although it was swearing, the girl's swearing was not vulgar, it was more like anger and shyness in a new house.

Yuan Li froze on the spot, but Bai Qian burst into a "puchi" laugh.In fact, it's not because Yuan Li doesn't understand human feelings at all, it's just that Ming Lian is still on the run, and everyone involved has to be on guard.

Yuan Li made a detour, avoided the girl, and stepped out the door.Jingxi held Xiaoshishi in her arms with one hand, and held Baiqian's wheelchair with the other hand, guarding behind Yuanli.They were so nervous that Bai Qian couldn't help touching the gun in his arms.

Anyway, I left the door of the teahouse, the place is remote, and there is no scene of crowds jostling each other.The girls who just passed by occasionally had their faces covered with veils, hiding their faces in various ways.

Bai Qian was amazed, and Yuan Li explained to him: "The Qixi Festival in Fanxi is when women hide their looks and sell flowers on the street. Those flowers are carefully taken care of by themselves and picked by themselves."

"Then what does 'sell flowers' mean? For example, why did the girl sell it to you just now?"

Yuan Li's face turned red instantly, Bai Qian didn't notice the angle problem.Seeing that he didn't speak, Bai Qian repeated the question.Jingxi explained from the side: "Ask for marriage."

"..." Bai Qian understood, and exclaimed, "That girl just proposed to you!"

Yuan Li was a little embarrassed, so he changed the subject: "What, did you like it?"

"How could it be!" Bai Qian was still amazed, "It's too childish to ask someone to propose marriage on the street! It's easier than going on a blind date!"

Yuan Li pinched his leg with his backhand, and when he heard him cry out in pain, he explained: "I didn't find it casually. Generally speaking, girls would sell flowers to their sweethearts on this day. But there are also many waiting for you." Girls who marry into the boudoir look forward to meeting a good spouse in this flower market. But the girl will not rush up rashly, she must have a look."

"That means, this girl has been peeping at you for a long time!"

Originally, I wanted to explain, but the more I spoke, the more unclear I became, and the more unclear I became, the hotter my face became.Yuan Li pinched him again: "Don't make fun of me."

Bai Qian shouted: "Don't, don't, I don't dare."

Yuan Li smiled, before he could speak, Jing Xi stretched out his hand and wrapped it around Bai Qian's shoulder.

Bai Qian was startled, and asked fearfully, "What are you doing!"

Jing Xi wanted to hug Bai Qian over, so she stared at Yuan Li: "Let go!"

Bai Qian was furious, and pushed Jing Xi with his backhand: "What's wrong with you smoking well!"

Jingxi froze in place, Yuanli asked tentatively, "Do you think I pinched him?"

Jingxi didn't speak, it was a default.

Bai Qian was a little helpless: "Can you figure out what a joke is? How could Big Brother Yuan really pinch me!"

Jingxi was a little dazed: "You called."

"So it's a joke! He pretended to pinch me, and I pretended to be in pain. Isn't this a normal communication!"

Jingxi also seemed to be aware that he had done unnecessary things, which made him feel like an intruder, and couldn't help but feel a little depressed.This feeling was too strange, he didn't know what it was for a moment, so he walked away sullenly.

Yuanli stood there for a while, sighed helplessly, and smiled wryly.

There was some noise on the street corner, Bai Qian just glanced at it, and returned to Mu's residence with Yuan Li.As soon as he reached the gate of Mu Mansion, Jingxi hurried out again.

Seeing Yuanli, Jingxi went straight to the point: "Mu Yueguan is gone!"
