peach smile

He stopped in front of the door, turned his head and said to Shen Pan.

Shen Quji didn't expect Wei Changan to turn around unexpectedly, and immediately turned his gaze away from her, feeling a little flustered: "I made this for you, do you want two servings?"

With that said, Shen Quji waved his hand and let Shen Pan go to the small kitchen to tell the cook.

Jixiang came forward to dust off the snow for Wei Changan, Ruyi also wanted to dust off the snow for Shen Qujiu, but Shen Qujiu raised his hand to stop him: "Don't bother me, I have to go to the back study... to deal with some trivial matters .”

Ruyi subconsciously glanced at her young lady, and she saw that the young lady's eyes flickered in the halo of the lantern, without nodding or shaking her head, which made Ruyi momentarily at a loss as to what to do.

Ruyi has always been outspoken, so in a hurry, the girl simply asked Shen Quji: "My lord, Uncle Fu said that everything is ready for the New Year, what are you doing in the study so late?"

"Busy...I..." Shen Quji hesitated, but was actually stopped by a girl.

Wei Changan made a sound in time, and after she shouted Ruyi not to be rude, she turned her head slightly to look up at Shen Quji, and said word by word: "The servant's rudeness is because I can't control him properly, please don't take it to heart , go get busy."

Shen Quji's hand hanging by her side twitched her fingers uneasily. For a moment, she spit out a cloud of white mist in the chilly air: "Then I...then you should rest earlier." After finishing speaking, she turned and left. go.

Wei Changan took advantage of Ji Xiang to dust off the snow for himself, and secretly followed the man for a while.

The man's back was slender and thin, on a dry and cold snow field, he looked forbearing and lonely, lonely and desolate.

As the Chinese New Year approached, the Shen family on East Street did not hold a funeral, nor did they send anyone to inform Shen Lian's family of the death of Shen Luoshi. Shen Luoshi's coffin was only quietly left Hezhou City in the early morning of the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month. Headed east.

The move of the Shen family on the East Street is to tell everyone clearly - my Shen family on the East Street has nothing to do with the Shen family on the West Street.

Although Shen Lian kept saying that the relationship between the two families would be broken, she would still babble from time to time.

Fu Que knew that Shen Lian attached great importance to blood and family ties in his bones, so he listened to what she said, but Shen Quji expressed some disdain for it, but because it was almost the Chinese New Year, Shen Lian did not scold his son violently as before, but just Shaking his head and sighing, Shen Quji said a little white-eyed wolf.

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve, and as in previous years, Shen Shusheng took Aunt Zhang and Aunt Qin to celebrate the New Year in Siguiyuan, Shen Lian and Fu Qu took Shen Quji and other juniors to have a New Year's Eve dinner at the old man Shen Xiren.

Although there was no ancestor at this year's dinner table, Wei Chang'an was added. Shen Yunian was afraid that his mother would feel too uncomfortable because of missing the ancestor, so he raised his glass and laughed and wanted to have a drink with his mother and sister-in-law.

As a result, when Wei Changan's wine cup was delivered to his mouth, Shen Quji, who was tilting his head and talking to the two younger brothers over there, stretched out his hand and robbed Wei Changan's wine cup.

"She is too strong to drink, she gets drunk and sleeps twice, and she has to keep watch at night." After speaking, Shen Quji stretched out his arm, and through Wei Changan in the middle, he quickly touched the wine cup in Shen Yunian's hand: "I'll just drink it."

After finishing speaking, before Shen Yunian could react, Shen Quji drank a glass of wine without blinking his eyes. The acrid burning sensation went all the way down his throat, and finally flowed into his stomach, burning into a ball of fire.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, it was getting late. Everyone moved to the Xi Nuan Room to play. Some said they wanted to play mahjong, and some clamored to play cards. When opening the door, he firmly held Wei Changan.

"What's wrong?" Wei Changan raised his head slightly, his eyes casually bent into crescents, and his thoughts drifted away for a moment.

She touched her nose, scratched her earlobe, and said in a low voice, "You will watch the New Year with them in a while, and you can go back after stepping on the sesame seeds on the porch before midnight. I will ask Shen Pan to see you off, and go to bed early when you go back." , I have to get up early tomorrow, remember?"

"Where are you going?" Wei Chang'an subconsciously embraced Shen Quji's forearm with both hands, hiding his homesickness for a long time, and was easily hooked by this man.

Wei Changan had pantothenic acid in his nose.

Shen Quji glanced at the arm held by her, and lowered his eyes to cover the emotion in his eyes——she could see Wei Changan's homesickness during the New Year's Eve dinner, and she really wanted to make this poor little The guy hugged him in his arms, comforted him softly, or accompanied him silently.

Shen Quji hooked the corner of his mouth, raised his hand to touch Wei Changan's forehead, and finally patted her shoulder lightly: "It's okay, I just want to go to the small ancestral hall to keep the ever-burning light for my father all night... Don't frown, It's okay." As she spoke, she raised her hand and smoothed Wei Changan's frowning brows with her thumb.

Without waiting for Wei Changan to say anything, Shen Quji broke away from Wei Changan's hand, took the fur robe and left.

Wei Changan tilted his head, turned around and walked into the Xi Nuan Room.

When she came in, the old man and mother-in-law Shen Lian were playing Go, and Aunt Fu Que, Shen Yunian, Shen Qubing, and Shen Jie had assembled a table of mahjong, and they were at Mazhuang. Little Jintian was playing with his nurse.

Seeing Wei Changan coming in, Shen Yunian waved to her with a sign: "Sister-in-law, come here quickly, come and see how lucky I am, it's impossible..."

Wei Changan walked over and sat down beside Yu Nian, everyone in the room had their own things to do, as if no one had noticed that Shen Quji had left.

After a round of mahjong, Wei Changan didn't care to see who lost and who won, who drew a good hand of cards.

The small ancestral hall not far away is brightly lit inside and out——

The number of joss sticks was twice as high as usual. The white candles were lined up behind the altar, and the red candlelight illuminated the tablet in the middle clearly. The words "First test the spirit seat of Chu Gong's taboo Zhongding" were painted in gold. , also glowing softly under the candlelight.

Shen Quji knelt in front of the tablet, picked up the pick, and picked out the wick of the ever-burning lamp.

His father Chu Zhongding died accidentally because of his mother Shen Lian's stubbornness, but his mother Shen Lian believed that fate is not his own, and everyone has their own destiny. Chu Zhongding should have died in a car crash at that time. It is his life.

Shen Quji, who believes that "my fate is up to me", categorically disagrees with his mother's idea - his father, Chu Zhongding, was rushed by his mother, Shen Lian, on a heavy rainy day, resulting in an accidental car crash and death, but his mother He insisted that it was his father's life, and he didn't think it was wrong to rush on the road in the rainy day.

Shen Quji thought that her mother's cognition was a mistake at all, and the first dispute with her mother in her life was because of this.

Later, every year on New Year's Eve, Shen Lian, his mother, would ask Shen Quji to watch the ever-burning lantern in front of Chu Zhongding's memorial tablet, and this ever-burning lantern, once kept by Shen Quji, has been kept for seven New Year's Eves so far.

The night was getting late again, it was almost midnight, the sound of crackling firecrackers could be heard outside, and the ever-burning lamp was quietly burning in the small ancestral hall surrounded by incense and mist. It's Enron.

She was ten years old when her father passed away unexpectedly, so her memory of him was quite clear. She even vaguely remembered his appearance—single eyelids, high nose bridge, thick lips, father's eyebrows were particularly dark, and his skin was also dark. He is tall, but his father is tall, and his father is very burly, and his father is very fond of laughing. His smile is always very hearty, and his father's temper is also very good. His father will let himself ride on his neck, and lead her and Yu Nian to the temple fair...

When Wei Changan came in quietly, he saw Shen Quji sitting kneeling on the futon, his whole body shrouded in an indescribable loneliness, his thin figure seemed more and more lonely amidst the lively firecrackers, which made people feel distressed Still distressed.

Suddenly a person knelt down on the futon beside him, sniffed quickly, and smelled a familiar fragrance in the smoky room.

"Why are you here?" She opened her eyes, and the sleepiness in her eyes didn't have time to dissipate: "It's freezing, it's cold here, you hurry back..."

"Shen Quji," Wei Changan kowtowed to the lonely tablet behind the altar, "Just let me accompany you."

"It's not an easy job to guard the lantern." Shen Quji's big eyes gradually cleared up, and the corners of this person's eyes slightly curved, which easily touched Wei Changan's mind: "If you really accompany me to kneel in the middle of the night, you will be afraid of going back to your mother's house the day after tomorrow." to be limping."

"What about you?" Wei Changan clasped his palms with clenched fists, "You want to kneel until dawn, and then go directly to pay New Year's greetings to the old man and mother?"

Seeing Shen Quji in front of him, Wei Changan suddenly smiled at him subtly, and said softly, "It's okay, I'm used to kneeling, you are different, go back quickly, I've taken your heart... What, what's wrong? What? Cried?"

"No!" Wei Changan raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, and after a moment of silence, he said firmly, "Shen Quji, I said clearly in front of my father's tablet that I don't want us to torture each other like this anymore, anyway, you have already made a decision." In the end, we should live that day. Now that we have reached the present, we are destined. Don't keep alienating me, okay? After a year, there will not be much time, and I won't occupy you for too long , How about we live a good life for a few days? Married once, but don't know how husband and wife live, it's a bit disadvantageous to say."

Shen Quji didn't expect Wei Changan to say these words, but in the end, she didn't have any unexpected reactions because of these words. She just knelt silently, without saying a word. The cold stars in the night sky outside.

"Well, let me put it another way." Wei Changan licked his lips, not confident enough: "I adore you, you can't fail to see, I know you also like me, everyone has the right to love and be loved , but why do you always reject me? Why don't you dare to accept me? "

Shen Quji lowered his eyes, the blood on his already pale face faded from the cold—why?Because I'm not the "Shen Quji" you admire, I'm just a monster who is neither male nor female!

The taste of love has never been expressed in words of joy.

Shen Quji is clear about her future—it's just that her body is reluctant, and her life is cold—when the time is right and everything is in order, she may find a sunny afternoon, wearing a robe that she often wears, and just like that. Leave without saying a word.

Therefore, she must not overstep the rules in any way, causing people to worry about it for no reason, and hurting people's hearts for no reason.

Seeing that Shen Quji remained silent for a long time, Wei Changan breathed a sigh of relief as if relieved, "Okay, Shen Quji, this time I'm really sober... Thank you for this fate in this life. "

After saying that, Wei Changan got up slowly, adjusted his cuffs and clothes, bent his knees slightly, and saluted to leave.

The moment she turned around, a corner of her clothes brushed over Shen Quji's shoulders. The fresh snow and the fragrance of green bamboo caught off guard and invaded all of Shen Quji's senses.

"Chang'an!" A voice that was suppressed so hoarse suddenly reached Wei Chang'an's ears, and at the same time, Wei Chang'an's hand was also grabbed by someone.

Wei Changan didn't make a sound or move, his eyes were calm, but he didn't know where to look - the ghost knew that her heart was going to hang in her throat.

Shen Quji didn't know why she suddenly pulled Wei Changan back, she just felt that if Wei Changan was allowed to leave like this, she would regret it for the rest of her life.

But after pulling people away, what do you want to say?

At this moment, Shen Quji felt extremely wronged in his heart—why could Chaojun, who is always alive and dying, still be able to make love in the sun and rain, but he could only secretly yearn for it in secret?Why can Yu Nian and Jin Tian be pampered and cared for freely and openly as women, but he can only bear everything that was forcibly imposed on him as the young master of the Shen family?

The people around him were either indifferent to her, or they were overly doting, or they were hypocritical and calculating, or they were servile and deliberately flattering her, so when Wei Changan came to her as an outsider After arriving by his side, Shen Quji couldn't control himself completely.

She is going crazy!

"I'm sorry..." But what can be said in this world is never just what you say.

Shen Quji's dark ink eyes were dyed dark red by the suppressed emotions. She lowered her head, her voice seemed to be sawn by a saw, and her voice was so dull: "I'm sorry..."

The pain from the hand held by Shen Quji overwhelmed the perception in her heart, and Shen Quji almost crushed her bones.

Wei Changan bit her lower lip tightly. After tasting the blood, she finally opened her mouth, so calm.

"It's okay," she said.

……

Jixiang Ruyi came here with Wei Changan, her lady went in, and she and Shen Pan stood guard outside the gate of the small ancestral hall. They didn't know what happened in the small ancestral hall, but not long after, their lady it came out.

Except for the red eyes of their lady, everything else is normal, Jixiang Ruyi didn't see the slightest clue, so she followed her lady back to Xinyixuan as usual.

Back at Xinyixuan, after the waitress went to bed, Jixiang also went back to sleep tiredly, leaving Ruyi alone to watch the night outside.

After midnight, when Wei Changan came out of the bedroom lightly, Ruyi was lying on the bed of the night watch maid and was fast asleep.

Wei Chang'an opened the door, and walked out of the room barefoot, wearing only a lotus root pink jacket.

The New Year's Eve in Dachao Kingdom is always lively, with the sound of firecrackers and brilliant fireworks. She listened to the joy of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new. The log-colored exquisite bridge lay down beside an osmanthus tree wrapped in straw by the servants.

Shen Quji likes snow. In Xinyixuan, except for the roads he often walks, which will be cleaned by servants from time to time, the snow in other places in the yard falls there intact, covering everything on the ground, leaving only a piece of pure white.

Wei Chang'an lay in such a piece of purity, calmly looking at the dark night in the sky, and the sporadic little snowflakes falling from the night.

Is it cold to lie in the snow after midnight with only your shirt on?Wei Changan didn't know, she had already clenched her teeth, but she still couldn't control the shaking of her upper and lower teeth.

After an unknown amount of time, the light snow on the sky gradually stopped, and the darkness of the night became unspeakably thick. Wei Changan knew that it was almost dawn.

She couldn't feel the freezing cold at all. Although she was still shivering, her body finally showed the expected fluctuating hot and cold.

When Wei Changan felt that it was almost done and wanted to get up and go back to the house, she found that she was already lying there, unable to move.

She wanted to ask Ruyi who was asleep in the room to come out and give her a hand, but she didn't have the strength to open her mouth, she was very sleepy, and her eyelids were very heavy, very heavy...

Before falling asleep, Wei Changan thought to himself, the sky before dawn is really dark.

The author has something to say: what the author should say

Shen Quji did not dare to tell his mother Shen Lian the real situation in Xinyixuan.

I just feel sorry for Dr. Dong Ming/Dr. Hui. Before the light of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Shen Quji's servant girl Xin'er woke her up from her sleep. The servant Shen Pan hurriedly brought Xin Yixuan.

Dong Ming/Hui sighed, what happened?What can happen? It's not Wei Changan, the eldest wife of the Shen family.

……

After Dong Ming/Hui had diagnosed Wei Changan, he just came outside with his medical equipment, when he saw Shen Quji, whose face was hard to hide his exhaustion, just coming back from the outside.

"Yo, young master, how much New Year's money did you give this year?" Dong Ming/Hui was packing the medicine box on the table, with a cheerful tone, as if no matter how serious the patient or illness was, she would not pay attention to it. .

"It's a little more than last year, and I gave ten papers this year." Shen Quji squeezed the space between his brows, his hoarse voice carried the vicissitudes of being ravaged by the passing years, which seemed to conflict with the festive day of the first day of the new year— — She hasn't had a restful night's sleep for a long time.

Dr. Dong suddenly laughed softly: "Is your old man wishing the young master perfect? ​​Tsk, this granddaughter-in-law already has it. If you can add a little golden great-grandson to the old man when you are new years old, then it will really be called perfect." ..."

It's not that Shen Quji didn't hear Dr. Dong say this kind of joke before, but now, she's in a bad mood, and she really doesn't have the time to talk to Dr. Dong.

She simply took a few steps to Dong Ming/Hui's side, lowered her voice, and said with a grin: "Dr. Dong, you knew my mother before I was born. Not only do you know everything about me, you even participated in it." , In the past, you made fun of me, so I just took it as a joke for you, and now I'm not too young, so you should stop saying such things in the future."

Such words make people feel uncomfortable.

Unexpectedly, the smile on Dong Ming/Hui's face was even worse. She was afraid of disturbing Wei Changan who was sleeping inside, so she didn't dare to laugh out loud, but the suffocated laughter caused her to shake her shoulders: "Hey, Eldest young master, why do you still not believe me, if I really don't have this ability, then you are... Then how did your Aunt Fuqu's child come from?"

Shen Quji was so tired that even the doubt in her expression slowly drifted across her face.

She tilted her head, committed herself to sitting in the chair, and frowned subconsciously: "No, you will fool me. Besides, the child you mentioned didn't succeed in the end..."

As he said that, Shen Quji suddenly looked at Dong Ming/Hui steadily, and said seriously, "That's right! Aunt Fuqu took a long time to recover from that incident, so don't go to her and say this." !"

"...I'm sick, I am!" Dong Ming/Hui packed up the medicine box, turned around and sat down on the tea table with Shen Quji, leaned over to Shen Quji's side, lowered his voice but couldn't hide it Her tone was embarrassing: "But to be honest, if you want, I really have a way to make the eldest young lady give you a child."

"..." Shen Quji, who was drinking tea to refresh himself, choked on the hot tea and couldn't even cough.

Dong Ming/Hui waved her hands, with a smile on her face that she had succeeded after teasing others, she carried the medicine box on her back, got up and said goodbye to Shen Quji: "Go in and have a look, I will come again before sunset, if the high fever subsides It's nothing serious, let's go, young master, please stay."

"Doctor Dong," Shen Quji got up and called Dong Ming/Hui. She shook her sleeves, hugged her hands and gave Dong Ming/Hui a big gift: "Thank you very much!"

It was rare for Dong Ming/Hui to look upright, and in just a moment, her unserious expression returned to her face: "Thank you, I was entrusted by an old friend to take care of your health, and it's just a promise... But if you I really want to thank me, hehehe, let me eat the food in Huaibi Building for two days, that's enough, get up, don't bow your waist, I can't bear a bow from the young master of the Shen family."

Shen Quji straightened his waist, and tried his best to raise a smile on the corner of his mouth: "From the [-]th of the first month to the [-]th of August, there is a private room on the second floor of Huaibi Building. It is not a respect, and Doctor Dong is welcome."

"Yo Yo Yo, you really practice the same virtue as Shen Lian, and you keep your mouth shut, like a profiteer..." Dong Ming/Hui left Xinyixuan swaggeringly.

Shen Quji ordered Shen Pan to drive Dr. Dong back to Jishitang.

After Dong Ming/Hui left for a long time, Shen Quji stomped his numb feet and entered the bedroom with a solemn expression.

The servant girl Ruyi was wiping Wei Chang'an's hands, when she saw Shen Quji come in, Ruyi put on a straight face, and reluctantly bent her knees to Shen Quji, and even forgot to greet him.

Shen Quji was standing three steps away from the bed, with his hands behind his back, his head slightly lowered, and his eyes were deep looking at the person on the bed whose face was flushed due to the high fever.

Shen Quji's eyelashes are very long, and she looks even more delicate when she lowers her head, but when she has no expression on her face, the coldness on her body always makes people inexplicably scary.

Ruyi is no exception.

Pretend to be calm, and within a few breaths, Ruyi was decisively defeated. She wrung out a towel from the cold water, held it in front of Shen Quji with both hands, and stopped annoyed: "Grandpa, here you are."

Shen Quji didn't understand Ruyi's meaning until she took the cold towel. She blinked, looked at the towel in her hand, then at Wei Changan lying there, and finally nodded stiffly: "Xin'er and Jixiang are here The small kitchen decocts medicine for your lady, you go and help them."

After Ruyi went out, Shen Quji walked heavily to the side of the bed and sat down, looking at the person who was short of breath due to high fever, she still felt a wave of fear in her heart...

/ / /

Wei Chang'an spent the first day of the new year between dreams and waking up. In the evening, she vaguely heard a commotion in the house. It seemed that she had a high fever again. I don't know, she didn't feel it anymore.

Wei Chang'an lay on the bed like this, until the afternoon of the second day of the Lunar New Year, when she really woke up in a daze.

When she woke up, her whole body was sore and weak, her hands were held by something soft but somewhat rough, and there was a person lying on the edge of the bed.

Wei Chang'an struggled to move the hand held by Shen Quji, waking up the person who was lying on the edge of the bed, hum, it was this guy who fed her several times of bitterness when she was too sick to fight back. medicine!

What a... nasty guy.

"You're awake." Shen Quji straightened up, immediately let go of Wei Chang'an's hand, and as expected brought out a bowl of medicine from the rattan basket kept warm: "Come and take the medicine. "

Wei Changan closed his eyes and pretended to be dead for Shen to see.

"At noon, your parents... they came here in person." Shen Quji tasted the temperature of the medicine, and put the medicine spoon filled with the medicine to Wei Changan's mouth: "They are very worried about you."

Wei Changan turned his face away, continuing to be unwilling to take medicine.

"...Then, what about you, why don't you drink hot water first?" Shen Quji took back the medicine bowl, stood up and poured a cup of hot water, and said the deep and gentle words that Wei Changan was familiar with: "I know you are so Why do you do it, in fact, you don't have to do this, you just need to inform me, I will take care of everything, you...you shouldn't be so disregarding your body."

This time it was finally Wei Changan's turn to show some face to someone, she still closed her eyes, not looking at Shen Quji, and she was even more silent--my old lady just ignores you, what the hell.

Shen Quji touched his nose, and put the water glass on the small table next to the bed tactfully: "Then you take good care of your illness, I'll let Jixiang Ruyi come over to accompany you, I, I'm leaving."

...Sneakly watching Shen Quji's leaving back until this person disappeared from his sight, Wei Changan's tears flowed down unconsciously.

"Miss, why are you crying?" Ruyi saw Wei Changan wiping her tears as soon as she came in, and she lost her affection for her uncle: "When the master and wife came to see you at noon, I should have told them the truth! Jixiang won't let me tell!"

"What are you talking about? What did my parents ask you?" Wei Changan rested his forearm on his eyes, weakly, hey, sick people are the most fragile and tend to shed tears.

Ruyi: "Master asked our lady how you are doing recently, whether you have bullied or been bullied by uncle, Madam asked if the Shen family made things difficult for you, whether there is anything missing in the room, whether the monthly money is enough, and whether the clothes are enough. Not enough to wear, not enough jewelry to change..."

"Okay, I got it..." Wei Changan interrupted Ruyi's words, feeling a dull feeling in his heart: "What did you say?"

Ruyi curled her lips and turned to look at Jixiang.

Auspiciousness is much safer than Yi: "Let's go back to Master and Madam, and tell Miss that everything is fine here, please rest assured, Master and Madam..."

The people in the room were still talking about something high and low, and in the corridor outside the window, Shen Quji finally went to the back study alone.

Chang'an didn't want to see her, and didn't even want to talk to her. Shen Quji walked on the path covered with another layer of thin snow with his hands behind his hands, and for some reason remembered the result of the combination of their birthdays.

"A house full of children and grandchildren will lead to a long life."

Feng Qingcheng has been to Wufo Temple for several days. Monks don't care about the worldly festivals. Even if it's Chinese New Year, except for the front hall, the temple is full of pilgrims, and the back temple is still as clean as usual, so quiet that even the front hall The din of voices could not be heard.

After the little monk refilled the lampstand with oil, he retreated quietly. Feng Qingcheng knelt on the futon, not very patient.

Kneeling sutras requires patience. It stands to reason that Feng Qingcheng should put aside those distracting thoughts when kneeling for her elder brother, but she can't calm down.

Her elder brother is 15 years older than herself, so she was not close to her in the first place. If it wasn't for getting closer to her elder brother, she wouldn't have traveled all the way to come here to chant scriptures for her elder brother who had died for many years.

In the past, every year on the second day of the Lunar New Year, Brother Quji would always come to Wufo Temple to visit her, but this year, starting from this year, Brother Quji will never come again, Brother Quji has married a wife, he wants Accompanying his wife back to her natal home...

Feng Qingcheng knelt on the futon, holding an envelope from Zou Baba that had been read so many times in his hand, and finally burst into tears——Second brother clearly said that he could let Qu Ji's brother divorce his wife. Asked Brother Quji to marry her, but the good news didn't come, but Brother Quji's decisive letter came!

In the letter, Brother Quji asked her to give up her heart. Brother Quji said that he already had a family and would never marry her in this life, let alone marry the Feng family.

Go to brother Ji, such a gentle person!To write such hurtful words in the letter, woo woo woo...

Shen Zhong, who rescued his grandmother Shen Luoshi in Wufo Temple, opened the door and came in after hearing the woman's cries in the scripture hall.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw a girl sitting on the futon, crying and trembling. He stood at the door and carefully glanced into the scripture hall. There was no one else in the scripture hall except him and the girl. others.

"Girl, girl? Are you okay?" Shen Zhong cautiously stood under the door and didn't come in.

Feng Qingcheng was crying heartbroken, and he didn't want to talk to this plain-clothed pilgrim who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Shen Zhong took a careful look at the enshrined tablet in front of the small gold-plated Buddha statue, then cleared his throat vigorously, and asked again: "Dare to ask, is the girl the eldest lady of the Feng family in the capital?... Miss? Miss?"

"Who are you!" Feng Qingcheng wiped away his tears, turned all the sadness into anger, turned around, and gritted his teeth at Shen Zhong: "I am the eldest lady of the Feng family in the capital, what's wrong? Didn't you see my aunt is Is it sad here? What are you yelling about, yelling!"

Shen Zhong was taken aback by Feng Qingcheng's sudden change, he hurriedly bowed to Feng Qingcheng, and subconsciously stuttered: "I met Miss Feng, Shen Zhong in, in Xiahe State, it's... it's Shen Zhong My cousin from the same family, I don’t know what kind of difficulties Ms. Feng has encountered, will I be lucky, able, and able to share her worries for Ms. Feng?"

Feng Qingcheng's tears suddenly stopped, she choked, and from half a distance away from the scripture hall, she looked at Shen Dongren's second grandson, Shen Li's second son——Shen Zhong inscrutablely.

……

Hezhou City, Shen Family:

Because Wei Changan was ill, she was lying on the bed on the second day of the Lunar New Year when she was supposed to go back to her mother's house.

At night, due to sleeping too much during the day, Wei Chang'an still tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep because she slept too much during the day, and she still couldn't fall asleep. Since she still felt dizzy when she sat up, she simply lay on the bed, closing her eyes and thinking wildly.

When Shen Quji came in, Wei Changan knew about it, because he was afraid of embarrassment when they met each other, Wei Changan lay still with his eyes closed. She turned over and missed a corner, and a coolness leaked into her bed through the gap.

Wei Changan thought that the surname Shen came here to fetch something at this time, but in the end, she clearly heard Shen Quji's footsteps and finally stopped by the bed, and then the man sat down on the edge of the bed.

Wei Changan felt a sight that she couldn't ignore even with her eyes closed, and it felt burning.The hand she put under the quilt also clutched the pure cotton quilt under her body uneasily, what is the surreptitious Shen doing?

Wei Changan didn't know how long she had been in a state of anxiety, but when she couldn't bear it any longer, she opened her eyes and asked Shen Quji, "What are you going to do?" Someone sighed in the silent night and tucked her in again. Tuck corner.

In the end, when Wei Changan thought that Shen was going to leave, a soft kiss slowly landed on the center of her brow.

Wei Changan finally couldn't help it, and suddenly opened his eyes: "Shen Quji, what are you doing?"

The author has something to say: Do you want to write about having a child? ?ask for advice

No.: Ranging (5)

I don't know whether Wei Changan's fever subsides or not, in short, when she opened her eyes and looked at Shen Quji, her face was abnormally red, even her ears, neck and eye circles were also flushed.

Just when Shen Quji withdrew and was so flustered that he didn't know how to explain, Wei Changan suddenly sat up and threw himself into her arms, and bit Shen Quji's neck which was covered by his collar.

Shen Quji frowned in pain, but in the end she didn't break away from Wei Changan, she just stretched out her hand to pick up the quilt, and wrapped Wei Changan carefully, for fear that Wei Changan would catch a cold again.

Shen Quji pursed his mouth - well, he is a normal person, those deliberate restraints are always out of control, it's not like he has approached Chang'an in such a sneaky way before, but it is the first time he has been caught like this , if Changan doesn't bite him, Shen Quji really doesn't know what to do.

Probably tired of biting, Wei Changan opened his mouth, sighed, and buried his face in Shen Quji's neck.

Her back rose and fell irregularly with rapid breathing: "You didn't push me away... because of your own guilt, or because of sympathy for me? Shen Quji, Yu Nian is right, you are a You bastard, a complete bastard!"

Hearing Chang An scolding himself, Shen Quji finally stretched out his arms and hugged the man wrapped in quilt into his arms, his heart was trembling, and it took him a long time to find his own voice.

"...Your parents, let me take good care of you. I'm just worried. Come and take a look." Shen Quji let go of his hand, and finally pushed the person in his arms out of his arms.

But why do you come to provoke me?Wei Changan turned back and leaned against the head of the bed, the knuckles of her fingers holding the brocade quilt turned white, her voice was low and low, almost crying.

"I play the seven strings on the piano, and the feathers of the Shangjiao, and the sound does not linger. I know beautiful women, independent of the world, and famous for their appearance. I have heard silver bells, jingling rings, and don't hit the heart, but I don't see the graceful Chang'an Xi, thinking about it, admiring it, like crazy..."

Shen Quji's hands were palms up, his fingers were slightly bent and scattered on his knees, his eyelids were slightly drooping, and on the corners of his slightly cool mouth, there was a gentle smile that was never cold - being lowered by Chang An The whisper came out, it was Shen Quji who wrote "Chang'an Si Preface" for the qin song "Chang'an Si" many years ago.

When composing the lyrics and preface for "Chang'an Si", she secretly thought that once "Chang'an Si" comes out, it will be widely used by music and dance workshops and piano practitioners just like the piano music she wrote before. ——When the long-sleeved and good dancer Miss Wei Jia also dances to the accompaniment of "Chang'an Si", will she at a certain moment understand the shady love in the deepest heart of the person who composed the music and wrote the lyrics?

Now that Wei Chang'an reads out these words and sentences that hide her mean thoughts in front of her, Shen Quji really feels like his long-cherished wish has come true.

Just don't know how to react.

For a moment, she really wanted to tell Wei Changan everything—the Shen Quji you admired, the Shen Quji who was famous for his seven-stringed song, the one who read poetry and books but threatened that the young man would not look after thousands of households. Shen Quji, the Shen Quji who managed the Shen family's business in an orderly manner at a young age!

He is not me.

She wanted to tell Wei Changan—look, I am a woman just like you.

Then, she wanted to ask Wei Changan——I, who took off the disguise of "the young master of the Shen family", am I the one you admire?

The answer is self-evident.

Then, she can use this reason to convince herself openly to let go of Wei Changan, let go of Wei Changan, because there are some things, once seen in the sun, it is difficult to be willing to return to the darkness.

Shen Quji lowered his head, avoiding Wei Changan's gaze, pursed his lips, and chuckled softly: "Changan, a good girl like you should be loved and pampered... Don't worry, you will be loved and loved in the future." You will definitely find a good husband, and you will not suffer the slightest grievance..."

And a vulgar and dirty person like me is definitely not worthy of you.

Wei Chang'an felt terrible—before she got married, she, Wei Chang'an, had always been the only one who made others cry. After getting married, this Shen, who was surnamed Shen, could easily make her cry every time.

"I have never been a person who is too obsessed with anything, but I have become obsessed with one thing." Wei Changan looked up at the pattern of mandarin ducks playing in water carved on the top of the bed curtain, his voice was so low that it was almost inaudible However, every word he uttered fell into Shen Quji's ears clearly: "When I was young, someone taught me how to play the piano, but I was impatient and inattentive. In the end, I couldn't even hear the sound of the piano. I didn’t figure it out, so I told the man, please don’t be angry, I like dancing, when I learn how to dance, I can show him how to dance, he caresses the piano music, and I dance to the music…”

As he said that, Wei Changan lowered his head, bent his legs, hugged his knees with his arms, and buried his face in his arms: "But later, when that man grew up, he forgot the agreement with me, he didn't even remember Me, but I miss that person until now, you say, am I stupid to be so obsessed."

Shen Quji frowned and remained silent, searching for those old memories over and over again in her mind - she was very sure that before she was 16 years old, she did not know or meet Wei Changan.

"It's really stupid," Wei Chang'an said, almost asking himself, "Unfortunately, she was born as a woman of the Dachao Kingdom, yet she dares to dream of asking for a unique love. Really, it's really stupid..."

"...All obsessions are vain," Shen Quji's voice trembled a little, but Mo Mo's eyes were full of oppressive coldness: "You lie in the snow and freeze yourself to get sick, because you just feel that life is going well." In this way, I don’t want to go back and be seen by my parents and let them worry about you for nothing... In fact, you don’t need to torture yourself like this to win sympathy, Wei Chang’an, even if you were frozen to death in Xinyixuan that day, in heaven and earth, in the world of mortals, The only ones who will really feel sad for you are your parents, so think about it yourself."

After finishing speaking, the person who was cruel to Wei Changan and left without looking back.

It's just that the night was dark, and no one saw the pain and confusion hidden in her messy steps.

……

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, on the night of the fifth day, because of the "reception ceremony" and "meal for the gods", Wei Chang'an, who had just recovered from a serious illness, followed Shen Quji to visit Old Master Shen to say hello.

They came early, before everyone else came.

Wei Changan saluted the old man respectfully, and apologized with lowered eyebrows, but when Shen Xiren spoke, Wei Changan found that the old man was no longer polite to her.

Shen Xiren put one hand on the armrest of the chair, and held two walnuts in the other hand, squinting at the granddaughter-in-law who was kneeling in the hall, and said in a tone of dissatisfaction besides dissatisfaction: "Yo, the year is coming to an end, you sick How's it going?"

Wei Changan didn't make a sound, just lowered his head, and the old man Ren Shen sneered.

Taking advantage of his daughter Shen Lian's absence and his grandson Qu Ji sitting beside him indifferently, Shen Xiren acted like an old master and gave Wei Chang'an a good education.

Grandfather scolded Wei Changan, first because she was sick during the Chinese New Year, so it was unlucky to invite a doctor at home on the first day of the new year, and second, because Wei Changan had been married to the Shen family for more than half a year, and there was still no movement in her stomach.

Shen Quji sat on the sidelines, eating the snacks on the tea table in front of him with a sullen head, without saying a word, his eyebrows frowned.

The words that came out of Shen Xiren's mouth were not the worst, but more mean. Shen Quji never expected that Wei Changan would be like a saw-mouthed gourd, and he just took it all without making a sound.

I don't know how long it has passed, when Shen Xiren said "Raising a hen is better than you can lay an egg", the owner of the house, Shen Lian, came in, and behind her was Fu Que who was holding Xiao Jintian.

"There are no eggs at home? Why are you hiding from me to discuss such important matters?..." Shen Lian asked the people in the room, looked back at Fu Que, then turned around and sat in a chair, and asked Wei Changan, "Why are you still here?" Kneeling? How is the illness? Do you still feel uncomfortable?"

At that time, Fu Que had already helped Wei Changan up from the cold ground after receiving Shen Lian's signal.

Wei Changan bent Qu's aching knee, and respectfully saluted Shen Lian and Fu Que, without daring to speak.

Regarding the situation in the room, Shen Lian's artillery fire was naturally aimed at Shen Quji - inevitably scolding his "son" all over the place.

Good scolding!Jixiang Ruyi stood outside the house door, and naturally heard the voices in the house. Ruyi whispered to Jixiang that she must go back to Wei's house to tell her master and wife, and tell them that the young lady's life here is not good at all.

/ / /

The Shen family doesn't have many relatives, so they have always had the habit of visiting Wufo Temple after the eighth day.

Wei Chang'an didn't want to go at first, she knew that Feng Qingcheng was at Wufo Temple, since she couldn't make Shen Quji happy with her, then she'd better stop making him hate her, she just needs to hide, out of sight net.

Unexpectedly, the old master Shen Xiren insisted on asking Wei Chang'an to go to Wufo Temple, specifying that Wei Chang'an should go to Wufo Temple to get rid of bad luck, and then pay homage to Guanyin, the Son of God.

Shen Jie was full of joy and wanted to go out to play, but he was punished by his aunt to copy the scriptures at home with his second brother. During the scripture copying period, meat and alcohol were not allowed, but Shen Jie was suffocated...

Wufo Temple is not too close to Hezhou City. On the morning of the ninth day of the first lunar month, four carriages drove out from Shen's house and headed straight for Wufo Temple.

The road is slippery in snowy days, and the snow is deep. In the past, it took an hour and a half by car, but this time it took a full two hours.

When the Shen family's carriage stopped at the back door of the East Temple of the Five Buddhas Temple, the dizzy Wei Chang'an had just leaned in the carriage and fell asleep not long ago.

After getting off the carriage, Fu Que didn't see Wei Chang'an, so she beckoned and looked for Shen Quji, who had just finished talking with the monk in charge.

"Where's Chang'an?" Fu Que asked.

"I don't know, I'm probably still in the carriage." Shen Quji lowered his eyelids, and his whole body was enveloped in an air that was even colder than the freezing weather.

Fu Que was keenly aware of the awkwardness between the two, she knew Shen Quji's true identity, but at this moment she didn't know what to say.

After a moment of silence, Fu Qu tiptoed slightly, and raised her hand to brush off a few plum blossom petals that fell on Shen Quji's head: "Qu Ji, Aunt Fu Qu knows how difficult you are, so I don't have much to say, but people here Going around in the world, too many things can't go your way, but it's not that you can't go as you want. Sometimes, everything is just one sentence missing. Auntie is someone who has been here. Let me tell you this, if you really If you have the heart, you will understand."

After finishing speaking, Fu Que turned around and walked towards the person waiting for her not far away without haste.

Shen Quji stood where he was, feeling as if he had choked on a dry steamed bun in his chest.

A cold wind swept the fallen plum blossom petals, and they fell on her sparsely again. In the autumn of last year, the words of the great monk who forgot to argue, suddenly turned around in her mind word by word.

"Being serious is seeking benevolence and gaining benevolence, and not being strict with yourself is seeking benevolence and gaining benevolence..."

If you don't take yourself seriously, you can seek benevolence and gain benevolence...?

Wufo Temple is divided into two temples in the south and east. The South Temple has the Daxiong Hall, which enshrines a huge golden statue of Tathagata. It is a place where ordinary pilgrims offer incense. It is used by people who live in a short period of time.

The members of the Shen family naturally also live in the East Temple.

Wei Changan, who was always getting tired lately, after resting all afternoon and one night, spent the second day just accompanying his mother-in-law and sister-in-law to look at the plum blossoms at the back mountain of Dongsi Temple.

It's the first lunar month, and the pink, white or red plum blossoms bloom all over the slopes of the back mountain, accompanied by the snow on the ground, it's really beautiful.

"Where's Quji?" Shen Lian picked a small plum blossom and stuck it on Xiao Jintian's head, and casually asked Wei Changan.

Wei Chang'an didn't know where the man had gone, so he turned to Shen Yunian beside him for help.

Shen Yunian cleared his throat, stepped forward and took Fu Que's arm, and said coquettishly to his mother Shen Lian: "Mother, it is enough for you to have two lovely daughters and a filial daughter-in-law by your side. Find that What are you doing with a heartless person who only annoys you? You will get angry when you see him!"

"Don't you know where your brother went?" Shen Lian said, never allowing anyone to evade in front of her.

Shen Yunian pursed his lips, his eyes dodged: "Cousin Bancheng just arrived, and my brother was found by him."

Feng Bancheng?Shen Lian subconsciously exchanged a look with Fu Que.

Fu Que stretched out her hand from Nuan's hand, and straightened Shen Yunian's windbreaker: "Did he come to Hezhou alone?"

The silly girl Shen Yunian shook her head, her small appearance looked rather depressed: "He still brought his six-year-old son with him, and his newly married wife..."

Shen Lian picked up Xiao Jintian, who was secretly stepping on the snow to play while no one was paying attention, and hugged him into his arms, with a calm tone: "After this year's summer, the Du family in Pingzhou will come to propose marriage to his third young master. , get ready."

After the words closed, Shen Lian hugged Xiao Jintian and continued to walk forward. Wei Changan stood behind Shen Yunian, vaguely understanding the lingering forbearance in Shen Quji's body——

The mother-in-law has such a straightforward method, with a single sentence, she cut off those yearnings of Yu Nian with a single knife.

Wei Chang'an sighed, that's fine, aside from the fact that the Du family in Pingzhou is a good family, those obsessions in Yu Nian were not given to the right people, and he was entangled and hurt himself in the end, so it would be better to cut the mess quickly.

Aunt Fuqu was led by Yu Nian to another place, leaving only Wei Chang'an at the same place. She looked up at the sky——Yu Nian's obsession was wrong in the end, so what about her own?

In the gray sky, the snowflakes that had been floating all night and morning finally stopped, leaving a vast expanse of whiteness and the land of the world is so clean.

No.: Ranging (6)

Even though he was unhappy with his aunt and cousin Shen Quji last time, Feng Bancheng and his wife and children came to Wufo Temple this time, but Yili still wanted to meet Shen Lian and the others.

In the living room of the monastery where Shen Lian lived——

Wei Chang'an sat on Shen Quji's left hand side, watching his nose, nose, nose, and heart in silence, like a servant girl waiting in the room, quiet and dispensable.

The main people who spoke/talked in the room were Shen Lian and Feng Bancheng.

Feng Bancheng's new wife, Yu Shi, is the second daughter of a Beijing official family with a moderate rank. She lost a leg and became a lame because of playing around in childhood. That's why her father married Feng Bancheng cheaply as a sequel. .

Dachao's scholars, farmers, businessmen, and business strata are clearly defined. Mrs. Feng, who was born in an official family, naturally looked down on the Shen family who were merchants. As an elder, Shen Lian didn't care about such things, but Shen Yunian, who was proud and arrogant, quit.

I don't know if it's just because of Madam Feng's contemptuous words, or there are other reasons, Shen Yunian started a verbal fight with Madam Feng with a few words, the more the two argue, the more ugly the words they say.

Shen Lian and Feng Bancheng unanimously chose not to stop them.

Shen Yunian had a bad mouth, and raised his hand to whip the long whip hanging around his waist.

Fortunately, he was held down by Shen Quji next to him.

Feng Bancheng seemed to have come back to his senses, and apologized symbolically to Shen Lian, and then scolded his wife in a low voice.

In front of Mrs. Feng, Shen Lian naturally couldn't spare Shen Yunian lightly, so she asked Shen Yunian's elder brother to kneel in the sutra hall for punishment on the grounds of "ineffective teaching and protection".

Shen Quji was punished by his mother to kneel down, it was just as commonplace.

Wei Changan remembered something Yu Nian had said to her before——Yu Nian said that since childhood, no matter what mistakes she made, Shen Quji would punish her for her——Wei Changan thought she was a loving sister surnamed Shen, Taking the initiative to bear all the punishments for my sister, now it seems that these "voluntary commitments" turned out to be mostly those who had no choice.

Wei Chang'an closed his eyes and focused on lowering his own sense of existence. She is not lowly, and she will not rush to be an idiot and complain after she and Shen Quji have reached this point.

As far as Shen Quji was concerned, she knew that Mrs. Feng looked down on the Shen family, but she still had to sincerely invite the brothers and sisters of the Feng family to go down the mountain with them after Feng Qingcheng finished chanting, and stay at the Shen family for two days.

Even though he knew that Yu Nian would be embarrassed and uncomfortable, Shen Quji couldn't help it - his mother, Shen Lian, valued face, no matter how the two families conflicted in terms of interests, it was impossible to really make things worse on the surface.

Shen Lian knew that Shen Dongren's family would spend the Chinese New Year at Wufo Temple this year, but that family made it clear that they wanted to sever ties with Shen Lian's family. With Tu's help, Shen Lian asked Shen Quji to secretly go to the South Temple of the Five Buddha Temple where the family lived.

Shen Xiren likes to beat a boatload of people to death with one blow, but Shen Lian can tell which is closer and which is far. The conflicts between the two of them are all in the father's generation, between Qu Ji and Shen Cong, Shen Zhong, Shen Jiayao and other children. Relatively close.

It's just that he didn't expect that on the way back from visiting Nansi, Shen Quji met his cousin Shen Zhong who came from nowhere.

As he got closer, Shen Quji could smell the faint smell of rouge and wine on Shen Zhong's body. The smell of rouge was vaguely familiar, so Shen Quji twirled his fingers calmly.

Shen Zhong happened to meet his cousin face to face, and really couldn't avoid it, so he took the initiative to come over to say hello to the boy.

Shen Quji rolled up his sleeves and didn't say much—my cousin, because of his poor looks and short stature, has read some sage books but has an introverted personality and a dull personality. He is 26 years old and has never married a wife. Not even a housemaid.

Catch up with Shen Luo's passing away on the New Year's Day, and his cousin eats vegetarian food and recites Buddhism, and sometimes he can't hold back and goes down the mountain to find a good time, there is nothing wrong with it.

Shen Quji had seen a lot of people like his cousin on romantic occasions, so he naturally knew what kind of expression to use and what to say, but Shen Zhong was different, this was the first time he was caught doing this—— Before his passion/desire had faded away, he ran into an acquaintance. Looking at his cousin's dark eyes, Shen Zhong felt that all his secrets had been seen through by that brat Qu Ji.

So Shen Zhong lowered his eyes, hurriedly bid farewell to Shen Quji.

Seeing Shen Zhong's reaction like this, Shen Quji didn't think much about it. After raising his eyebrows, he led Shen Pan back to the East Temple and returned to his mother.

The Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Feng Qingcheng spent the past few years at Shen Quji's house, and this year was no exception. Therefore, at noon on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, a group of people got into a carriage and set foot on the way back to Hezhou City. way.

Spring in Hezhou City always comes late, even though it is the middle of the first lunar month, the snow and cold soil on the road has not yet thawed, and the carriage is driving carefully.

Because Mrs. Feng thought she was born noble, her carriage took the lead as a matter of course, followed by Shen Quji and Wei Changan's carriage.

But since Shen Quji and Feng Bancheng rode at the back, Shen Yunian took the same carriage with his sister-in-law as a matter of course, while Feng Qingcheng was arranged by her brother at the farthest place from Shen Quji. In the lady's carriage.

The mountain road down from the Wufo Temple was not easy to walk, and the experienced coachmen took great care to drive the carriage down the mountain safely.

There is Qixian Town at the foot of Wufo Temple Mountain. Mrs. Feng, who bumped all the way down the mountain, must rest here, saying that she is tired and hungry, and dizzy from the carriage.

The group had no choice but to follow her and sat down in an inn.

"I really don't know what's so good about this rough and wild place. Isn't Hezhou City called a 'Little Jiangnan'? Hmph, it turns out that it's a rough place where even the coachman can't drive a carriage..." Mrs. Feng pulled Feng Qingcheng grumbled and complained in front of Shen Yunian and Wei Changan.

Feng Qingcheng has been a little absent-minded since she came out of Wufo Temple. She let her sister-in-law lead her, and she was full of thoughts.

Wei Changan grabbed the angry Shen Yunian, and Aunt Fuqu told her that she must watch over Yu Nian no matter what, otherwise Shen Quji would be punished.

But Wei Chang'an always felt that sister-in-law Yu Nian's reckless actions were actually trying to hide something deeper.

It was less than two o'clock when they came down from the mountain, and they rested for a while. After noon, Mrs. Feng, who maintained her noble status in the group, spoke to let everyone set off.

After going down the mountain, the road conditions were good, and the driver drove very smoothly. The road was even smooth, and the driver felt a little sleepy in the afternoon.

Therefore, when the carriage of Mrs. Feng, Feng Qingcheng, and Feng Bancheng's son suddenly broke its axle, the carriage driver behind couldn't rein in the horse in time, and the carriage behind hit the carriage in front, and they rolled over from the official road together. .

This section of the official road is flat, but it is built on a high slope.

……

Shen Yunian vaguely remembered the whole process, but she felt that she was actually just having a dream, and when she woke up unknowingly, she found herself lying in her room in the Shen Family Manor.

She roughly inquired about the situation with the maid Caiwei, and then asked Caiwei to help her to the elder sister-in-law Wei Changan.

It was a sunny afternoon, when Shen Yunian entered the courtyard, Shen Quji sat on the steps under the porch, squinting his eyes, as if basking in the sun.

"...Shen Jinnian, where are I, my sister-in-law?" Shen Yunian came to Shen Quji's side, as if there was a thousand talismans hanging from his heart by a single hair.

Shen Yunian was too scared - when the incident happened, the sister-in-law pushed her out of the carriage, but the sister-in-law herself was taken to the bottom of the slope by the carriage, and she still hasn't woken up.

"Still sleeping, Doctor Dong is inside." Shen Qu breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his legs, and leaned halfway back on the steps.

After the words were closed, Shen Quji raised his chin to the west of the courtyard, Shen Yunian looked along, and saw the soul-calling banner hanging high in another courtyard at a glance.

It belonged to Feng Bancheng's newly married wife, Mrs. Feng.

Shen Yunian lowered his head, not daring to look directly at his brother who was bathed in the warm sunshine—Caiwei told herself that in this accident, Mrs. Feng died on the spot, and two drivers were seriously injured. Injured, Feng Bancheng's son was safe and sound, but was frightened.

"Yu Nian," Shen Yunian heard his brother's deep and soft voice, the tone seemed to be telling Jin Tian a bedtime story: "If yesterday...if your name is written on the Feng family's soul-calling flag now , You said, you want me and our mother, what should I do?"

In the afternoon of the New Year, the sun was warm and bright, the snow had not yet melted, and everything was in a state of breaking ground and sprouting. Shen Yunian finally threw himself into Shen Quji's arms, and burst into tears...

It was only later that Shen Yunian really understood what his brother meant when he said, "If it was her that was written on the summoning banner"—Madam Feng was rescued by Shen Quji and Shen Pan, but at that time, she Mrs. Feng had already lost a lot of blood, so she went there on the spot, while Feng Bancheng, her husband, had already carried his fainted son in his arms, and rode to find the doctor.

That is to say, if Feng Bancheng did not leave with his son in his arms when Shen Quji and Shen Pan went down to save Wei Changan, but went down to save his wife as well, then his wife might not die due to excessive blood loss. die……

After a while, Shen Yunian was afraid that if his elder brother hadn't tried his best to stop him, and if he had married into the Feng family, then she might be the one who died of excessive blood loss because he didn't get treatment in time, but he was still an asshole. Wuyi gambled with his brother for half a year because of this marriage.

Shen Yunian is glad that she has a brother who loves her so much, she is very happy, isn't she?

……

"...Happy today that the red rope will be tied together, a perfect match. It is predicted that in the next year, we will be together forever, Gui Fu Lan Xin..."

Wei Changan heard someone singing loudly the contents of her marriage letter. Standing in a soft white cloud, she couldn't find her way for a moment. She searched for the loud and sometimes distant singing voice. At the end of the cloud and mist, I saw a looming figure.

The man was wearing a bright red wedding gown, with his back facing her, and was kowtowing towards the opposite side, Wei Changan walked over involuntarily.

As Wei Changan approached, the figure of that person became clearer and clearer, and the scene where that person was located became more and more real—this is the wedding hall where Wei Changan got married, the wedding hall where Wei Changan himself got married.

Surprisingly, the person wearing the wedding gown was her cousin Wen Pengju, and the bride who was visiting with her cousin was... Wei Changan himself!

Wei Chang'an subconsciously stretched out his hand, and rushed to pull the self in the phoenix coronet and Xiapei. Unexpectedly, when the picture changed, she actually came to the new house when she got married.

She saw that she, who was married to cousin Pengju, was being suppressed by cousin Pengju, doing some shameful things, while her husband, Shen Quji, stood aside, watching coldly... …

"Help!" With a cry, Wei Changan woke up from the nightmare, covered in cold sweat.

The meditating person sitting on the warm bed immediately patted the dozing person opposite: "Doctor Dong! She's awake!"

Dong Ming/Hui Zai checked Wei Changan's injuries carefully, while Shen Quji stood at a distance.

Wei Changan glanced at Shen Lian without any trace, only to see that this man had his hands behind his back, his thin lips were slightly pursed, his eyes were half down, and his composed expression was somewhat similar to his mother Shen Lian, but this man The eyes are too deep, so that it looks more indifferent.

According to Dr. Dong's request, Wei Chang'an slowly raised his leg, and asked dryly, "How is Yu Nian? Is she okay? Where are the others?"

Dong Ming/Hui's expressionless face finally loosened a bit. She grinned, following Wei Changan's example, and said, "Everyone should eat and drink, and those who can't eat and drink have incense to enjoy. As for young lady, you just woke up, ah, you still have to worry about others, why don't you worry about your husband?"

Wei Changan's gaze followed Dr. Dong all the time, she blinked uncomfortably, and asked Shen Quji symbolically, "What's wrong with you?"

The fear left by the nightmare has not completely dissipated, Wei Changan looked at Shen Quji, and there was an indescribable contradiction.

Shen Quji didn't make a sound, Dong Ming/Hui Le answered in her place: "Young Master, it's nothing, it's just that he didn't sleep for three days and nights, and he sued Xiao Qingmei, who wholeheartedly admired him, to the court with a lawsuit, tsk, It's normal to think about it, he is a person who struggles in the business field, he is cruel..."

"Ahem!" Dr. Dong became more and more outrageous, so Shen Quji had to clear his throat vigorously, and interrupted her just in time: "How is her injury?"

"There is nothing wrong with the rest of the body." Dong Ming/Hui looked at Wei Changan, then at Shen Quji: "If there is no sign of dizziness and nausea within two hours after waking up, it will probably get better after a few days of rest, but she I can't control the bruises on my body from being knocked out..."

Shen Pan and Xin'er sent Dr. Dong to the guest room, Jixiang Ruyi was decocting medicine and cooking, and only Shen Quji and Wei Changan were left in the room.

"How are you feeling?"

"What time is it?"

The two opened their mouths together, and closed their mouths together.

"It's almost mao time," Shen Quji answered Wei Changan's question first, she moved her hand hanging by her side, and finally just twitched her fingers uncomfortably: "You, you have slept for a long time... If, if If you feel uncomfortable, just tell me, I..."

"Doctor Dong said, who... who... went to enjoy the incense?" Yu Nian was fine, Feng Qingcheng was fine, so Madam Feng, Young Master Feng and two coachmen were left.

"It's Mrs. Feng." After Shen Quji fed Wei Changan a little water, he moved a stool and sat down at the end of the bed, and finally leaned wearily against the bedpost at the end of the bed: "Feng Bancheng has already brought Mrs. Feng's coffin back It's Beijing."

"I had a dream." Wei Changan couldn't see Shen Quji sitting at the end of the bed, but said softly, "I dreamed about cousin Pengju and..."

"Okay," Shen Quji's hoarse voice covered all her worries and entanglements: "I will invite him tomorrow..."

Wei Changan shuddered and froze there—what does this mean?

"Okay, for the rest of my life after the catastrophe, I have to see you." Wei Changan heard himself say.

No.: Upside Down (1)

How did Shen Quji react when the carriage overturned accidentally? ——The ghost knows that her mind has become blank, and she has no reaction at all, only instinctively chasing after her.

There were two people sitting in the carriage, one was her own sister, and the other was her... her beloved - none of them could have anything to do!

How lucky—my younger sister Yu Nian only broke her arm, while Wei Changan hit her head, but she didn’t have any aftereffects. Aside from the bumps and bumps on her body, she just made others worry——I’m good Sleep well and lethargic for a few days.

It's not that Shen Quji doesn't believe in the old adage that "there is a god when you raise your head three feet above".

In the business field, sometimes she had to resort to some unsightly means, but she didn't cut off other people's backs and push them to a desperate situation like Shen Li and Shen Youtu brothers did.

Look, isn't her blessing coming soon?

……

When Wen Pengju entered the door, Shen Quji was frowning and telling Shen Pan some things about his family.

Seeing Wen Peng coming in, Shen Quji subconsciously relaxed his frown, probably because he didn't want others to see his embarrassment.

She cupped her hands and wished Wen Pengju a new year greeting: "Brother Wen, I haven't seen you for a long time. Happy New Year."

Wen Peng came over swayingly, exposing Shen Quji's face as a businessman mercilessly: "You can't do it, the Lantern Festival is over, who are you paying homage to next year, Young Master Shen?" Son."

"Inside the room, please." Shen Quji signaled Shen Pan to go to work without any trace, and then gently smiled and invited Wen Peng into the living room.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?" Wen Peng sat down in the chair with a big horse and sword, and poured tea by himself.

This guy is not polite, Shen Quji thought so in his heart, but he said: "I am a small commoner, what can I do if I come to you, Mr. Wen, for the Chinese New Year, but... it is Chang'an, she is a little bit alone. Bored, and said that I miss you brothers and sisters, so I invited you over."

"Us?" Wen Peng raised his eyebrows: "Who did you invite?"

Shen Quji drooped his eyes, and smiled slightly: "No one else, anyway, you're the only one here, so just treat it as if I only invited you."

Wen Pengju didn't believe it: "Don't fool me, an honest scholar."

Hey, Wen Pengju's stinky loach is too slippery, Shen Quji didn't dare to say anything else, so he excused himself to be busy, ordered Xin'er to lead Master Wen to find Wei Chang'an, and left in a hurry up.

Seeing Shen Quji leaving in a panic as if being kicked out by a dog, Wen Pengju was extremely keenly aware of the slightest clue.

……

If we say that Wen Pengju, the young master of the Wen family, can be considered to have survived the ravages of his cousin Peach Blossom, with a strong will, but his unknown thoughts were all sealed up after Peach Blossom got married, but A smart person can guess what people think in just three years. Wen Pengju felt that there must be some kind of grievance between Taohua and Shen Quji.

As in previous years, after the [-]th day of the first lunar month, the snow on the ground began to thaw. After the snow melted in some places, green grass sprouts that broke through the ground unexpectedly appeared.

It is a good time to look at the grass from afar but see nothing close at hand.

"Peach Blossom?" Wen Pengju called Wei Chang'an who was sitting under the pavilion from a distance: "Do you miss me?"

"How dare you take so long to come to me!" Wei Changan put away the calm expression on his face very quickly, and changed into the previous carefree and silly look: "I know , you must be afraid that I will ask you for New Year’s money when you come during the Chinese New Year! So you didn’t come to see me until now! You went to my house on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Didn’t my parents say that I was sick? Can I go back to my mother's house?"

As he said that, Wei Changan shook his head with his mouth, with an expression of "Young man, your thinking is very dangerous": "Is it you who are too mean, or is my peach blossom too unreasonable? I have never been an unreasonable person, thinking about it. Because cousin Pengju, you are too stingy, you said how much can you give me as a New Year's Eve money? In the future, when you have a child, I will still give him the New Year's Eve money, so you are not so afraid that from last summer to today all Dare to see me twice, tsk tsk, it hurts..."

Wen Peng smiled so much that her eyes almost narrowed, this peach blossom still has such a strong mouth, no matter what she says, she always looks like she is the most reasonable.

"Okay, okay, I'll seal the lucky money for you!" Wen Pengju took out a small palm-length delicate sandalwood box like a magic trick from nowhere: "Open it and have a look, you will be satisfied."

"If I'm not satisfied, can the things be exchanged for New Year's money?" Wei Changan asked Wen Pengju with longing eyes while opening the box, as if she knew she wouldn't like it without looking at the things in the box.

As a result, when she lowered her head, she was instantly slapped in the face by reality—there was a jade hairpin in the box that glowed softly under the sun. The hairpin itself didn’t have many patterns and looked simple, but Wei Changan looked very beautiful No, she just stared blankly at Yuhan.

"How is it, is it enough?" Seeing Wei Changan's bright eyes, Wen Peng raised his eyebrows, making a gesture to put away the hairpin, and said in a playful tone, "Well, don't talk? It seems that you don't like it anymore, forget it, I'd better give you the New Year's money directly..."

"...No, no, no New Year's money!" Wei Changan quickly snatched the box from Wenpeng's hand, held it in his hand, and stuffed it into his sleeve. Smiled: "That's all, I like it very much, thank you cousin Pengju."

"Hey, it's really not easy to win the smile of our sister-in-law Peach Blossom." Wen Pengju asked casually with a relaxed expression and natural manner: "Although this kind of thing is beautiful and rare, it is not a rare treasure. , There are too many of these things in Linlang Pavilion in your house, Shen Quji didn't give you a few of those elm bumps?"

Wei Chang'an lowered his head and played with the hairpin made of high-quality jade, and answered quite casually: "I don't know, Linlang Pavilion has always been managed by my mother-in-law, and it's not his second king's turn to intervene."

Perhaps Wei Changan's attitude was too careless, or perhaps Taohua had also learned to restrain emotions, anger, sorrow, and joy. Wen Pengju didn't even see what was going on in the end, and he couldn't even fathom what Wei Changan was thinking. slightest.

Wen Pengju sighed, as expected, those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black. Taohua and Shen Quji have lived together for a long time, and they have learned to hide from that boy Shen Quji.

Wei Chang'an didn't know that Wen Pengju was thinking of making circles when he turned a corner. That night, after Shen Quji came back, she excitedly showed Shen the hairpin given by her cousin.

Shen Quji also took the hairpin, looked at it carefully, and commented: "It's a rare piece of fine jade."

"Then how does it compare with your carp?" Wei Changan pointed to the little carp jade pendant that Shen Quji had been wearing around his waist all the time, like a young couple chatting about homework, and asked, "Which one is better?"

Shen Quji took the carp jumping jade pendant on his waist into his hand, rubbed it slowly twice, and then said in a low and warm voice: "If you look at the price, material and workmanship, the hairpin is good. , but still not as good as this jade pendant, but in terms of love,
